More Fun Than Bowling
by Steven Dietz
October 27 - November 19, 2011
at the Cox Building Playhouse
If sport is a metaphor for life, a parallel of all things physical and metaphysical, then Jake's life is a 7-10 split. Whether being his own boss in a backwater bowling alley or curbing his daughter's attempts to help him find romance, his days are a dichotomy of life's uncertainties and death's mysteries, of perfect bowling form and disastrous marriages. He's a quintessential nobody, yet shadowed bu a mysterious man with an attaché cuffed to his wrist. A hilarious comedy by the author of our past hit, Private Eyes.

Gilligan’s Island: the Musical Book by Sherwood Schwartz & Lloyd J. Schwartz, Words and Music by Hope Juber & Laurence Juber
January
26 - February 18, 2012 at the Courtyard Theatre
Based on the beloved TV series by Sherwood Schwartz and created by his talented family, this hilarious musical returns to the Rover stage to charm audiences of all ages. A small touring boat has been shipwrecked on a desert island, and the seven castaways must work together to try to get back to civilization while overcoming hurricanes, extra-terrestrials, and their biggest obstacle, Gilligan himself, who manages to bungle every chance of rescue. All the fun and silliness of the original series, plus singing and dancing!

Kill the Moment by Scott Gibson (Regional Premiere)
March 8 - 31, 2012 at the Cox Building Playhouse
Nothing spoils the mood like a double cross... unless it's a murder. How many ways can four people decieve each other? Gina, a former soap opera star, has retreated to a remote mountain cabin after being acquitted of killing her husband. Trent is a stranded motorist she picked up so he can phone for help, but her friend Carol Ann is suspicious of his motives. Even before Trent’s friend Gus can get there, the twists and turns begin as no one – not even the dead – can be counted on.

Written in Time
by Matthew J. Edwards (
World Premiere )
May 17 - June 9, 2012 at the Cox Building Playhouse
Just before World War II, Angelica and Richard, a Navy sailor, meet and fall deeply in love. Years later, her granddaughter Angie, who longs for a good man herself, discovers the passionate letters Angelica received from Richard. Infused with humor and tragedy, the play deftly interweaves the wartime events with Angie’s response to their growing love through these letters. Then, as Richard says, “This war changes things,” and a strange twist of fate unexpectedly ripples through the lives of the wartime couple and the generations after them. Another World Premiere by a Dallas playwright!

Love in E Flat
by Norman Krasna
(author of our smash hit Sunday in New York)
July
12-28, 2011 at the Courtyard Theater
In this effervescent comedy from the writer of last season’s hit, Sunday in New York, love goes flat when lovers practice to deceive. Howard is a poor medical intern whose girlfriend Amy lives in the apartment right below his. He does love her, but out of imagined jealousy, has planted a listening device in her apartment. When Amy discovers the “bug,” she and her sister invent some spicy conversations and situations that keep Howard on his toes. Can true love triumph over tricks and mistrust?

The Girls in 509
by Howard Teichmann
August 23 - September 15, 2012 at the Cox Building Playhouse
Do today’s politicians make you want to bury your head in the sand? Two wealthy ladies cut themselves off from the outside world in 1932 when “that man” Roosevelt succeeded Hoover. Twenty-five years later their hotel has been condemned and a swarm of reporters has discovered their hideaway, followed close behind by the leaders of both the Republican and Democratic parties, greedily drawn to their supposed wealth. What changed during the girls’ seclusion, along with all that has ridiculously stayed the same, makes this a comic delight no matter who you vote for!
