Titus Andronicus: January 8th-11th, 13th-17th
By: William Shakespeare
Titus, a Roman general, returns to Rome after a victorious campaign against the Goths. In tow as captives are Tamora and her sons—one of whom, Alarbus, is sacrificed at the hands of the sons of Titus. Saturnius, the newly declared emperor, is feuding with his younger brother, Bassianus; at one point Saturnius attempts to wrest Lavinia (who is Titus's daughter) from Bassianus, although he ends up failing in that and instead being seduced by the captive Queen Tamora. Tamora, all the while, plots with her Moorish lover, Aaron, against Titus.

Bye Bye Birdie: August 6th- August 15th
Book by Michael Stewart, Music by Charles Strouse & Lyrics by Lee Adams
It’s 1957. Rock legend and teen heartthrob Conrad Birdie has just been drafted into the army, sending the young women of America into a panic over losing their beloved hero. Birdie's manager, Albert, is facing financial ruin, and his secretary and would-be love interest Rosie is getting more than a little frustrated with him. Albert plans a farewell party for Conrad on the Ed Sullivan Show, when one lucky fan will have the chance to kiss him. Kim MacAfee from Sweet Apple wins the contest. She is ecstatic. Her boyfriend is not. Complicated to start with, things get trickier as everyone including Albert's clinging mother descend on the small town where the chosen girl lives, to bid bye bye to Conrad Birdie.
