Mauritius - WTC

Mauritius Production Overview

Who knew stamp collecting could be so dangerous? After their mother’s death, Jackie and Mary, two estranged half-sisters, discover a book of rare stamps that may include the crown jewel for collectors. One sister tries to collect on the windfall, while the other resists for sentimental reasons. In this gripping tale, a seemingly simple sale becomes dangerous when three seedy, high-stakes collectors enter the sisters’ world, willing to do anything to claim the rare find as their own. An “ingenious” fast-paced thriller, Mauritius is a gripping blend of sharp comedy and heart-pounding drama that simmers with constant surprise.

Mason’s work is immediately captivating and terrifically exciting from start to finish! Concluding the program will be one of the great English compositions of the 19th century, Sir Edward Elgar’s Enigma Variations, his fascinating musical portraits of friends and family. Zoltek’s evocative dance inspired Hemispheres will open the concert. “

FROM DIRECTOR NICK RAPP:

Love has a vast power. And in that special way that plays can tell a story, Now and Then gives us the opportunity to reflect on how and why love can thrive or decay. Language and communication are at the center of this play – how we speak to each other, how we express our love, and within that, how we express our needs and wants. It is not uncommon that with those for whom we share the deepest love, we also assume the gravest responsibility to ensure that their future blooms brighter by the aid of our participation. How enlivening! How richly exciting! How painfully stressful!

Sorry! A New Musical – Alpine Theatre Project

Sorry! A New Musical

Are you ready for hilarity at its finest? Then, you must check out this brand new musical coming to the Alpine Theatre Project entitled Sorry! A New Musical (It’s the Tits). Nope, that is not a misspelling……Whether you enjoy the typical theatre or not, this may be just the production for you. 

Let me set the scene for you…..

Set in corporate America, “Sorry” is a side-splitting and honest new musical about a young woman named Carly who wants only to be taken seriously at her job. In tandem with her best friend Angela, Carly navigates her struggles with discrimination, confidence, love, and knowing her worth. While confronting the stark realities of family-planning, Angela deals with an over-the-top mother, and also manages to meet a super hot gynecologist along the way. “Sorry” is a show that will have you in stitches while also bringing to light the challenges that many women (and men) face when striving for recognition and respect in a condescending world.

“Join us for a debaucherous & hilarious new musical about mansplaining, menstruation, dieting, dating, and, well, boobs.” ~ Alpine Theatre Project
