Masquers Playhouse proudly presents our 56th season
THE KITCHEN WITCHES Isobel and Dolly have hated each other for 30 years. When they team up for a TV cooking show called “The Kitchen Witches,” the plot thickens faster than the gravy. A lively and fun-filled comedy that will satisfy the fussiest appetite.
By Caroline Smith
Directed by Robert Taylor
THE APPLE TREE This trio of short musical comedies is about getting what we want and discovering what we really wanted afterward. It includes Adam and Eve, a little Mark Twain, some “The Lady or the Tiger,” and a bit of Jules Feiffer. Here’s your chance to see this seldom-produced gem from 1966.
By Jerry Bock, Sheldon Harnick & Jerome Coopersmith
Directed by Robert Love
FUDDY MEERS In this wacky comedy with as many kooky characters as a carnival fun- house, an amnesiac wakes up each morning remembering nothing. Her family must teach her anew who she is, each day. When she is kidnapped, her zany adventures really begin.
By David Lindsay-Abaire
Directed by Michael Haven
OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY There’s conflict, comedy, and a bit of romance in this moving story about hostile takeovers, old fashioned vs. modern values, love, and loyalty. Which cat will pounce on which mouse. Who will win? Who will lose? Who will get the money? And will he get the girl too?
By Jerry Sterner
Directed by Robert Estes
THE 25th ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE
This ingenious, delightful, Tony-winning musical centers around a spelling bee. Six very special kids in the throes of puberty compete to see who can spell the longest and most difficult word, and learn that winning isn’t everything. You’ll want “to hang around for a good long spell.”
Music and lyrics by William Finn
