Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune By Terrance McNally
Directed by Connie Canaday Howard

Our Frankie and Johnny in the Clair de Lune is a re-staging of one of our favorite and most successful productions, which BTE originally produced in 1997. Original cast members (and COD Theatre professors) Amelia Barrett and Bryan Burke reprise the lead roles. In our complex world, this story about heart and taking risks examines Frankie and Johnny’s need for companionship and asks the question, “What are we willing to give up for love?” Click here for additional information and a link to the study guide: Frankie and Johnny

Neil Simon’s Fools
Directed by Doug Long

Fools, A Comic Fable by acclaimed playwright Neil Simon, is funny, silly and warm. Leon Tolchinsky, a young teacher excited about his first tutoring position, arrives in this Russian village to find the people sweeping dust from outside back into their houses, as well as doing and saying a host of other odd things. He learns that the town has been cursed with stupidity for 200 years, and it’s his job to break the curse in one day, or be cursed himself, and, of course, he’s fallen deeply in love with his student. Bring your picnic baskets, blankets or lawn chairs, and enjoy the beauty of the Arts Center courtyard for this light-hearted production.
