“…an unexpected, gut-busting hit…one of those breakneck exercises in idiocy that make you laugh till you cry…It starts off punch-drunk and just keeps getting drunker.”—The New York Times.
It’s opening night of the Cornley Drama Society’s newest murder mystery, The Murder at Haversham Manor, and disaster is waiting in the wings. The set is falling apart, the props are missing, and the actors can’t seem to remember their lines—or stay on their feet. As the cast fights to keep the show on track, the evening unravels into a perfectly choreographed comedy of errors. Part Agatha Christie, part Monty Python, The Play That Goes Wrong is a wildly funny backstage romp that proves the show must go on… no matter what. Recommended for ages 8+.

In 1987 Mississippi, Rose Chipley’s social ambitions are crushed when she’s rejected by the elite City Garden Club. But just as all hope seems lost, a quirky invitation from the eccentric Bettye Little-Landrum offers a tantalizing alternative—the Attala County Garden Club. What begins as a charming escape soon takes a decidedly darker turn as Rose stumbles upon the club’s mysterious, moonlit gardening rituals. Beneath the petals and pruned hedges, a web of secrets begins to bloom, and Rose soon realizes that the garden club’s members might not just be cultivating flowers… but something far more dangerous. The Attala County Garden Club is a bewitching comedy where the stakes are higher than you’d expect, and the soil is thick with secrets. Recommended for ages 16+.

One nation. Many dreams. A musical that moves the soul.
“A dazzling, heart-stirring masterpiece. Ragtime delivers a powerful, timeless message that resonates long after the curtain falls.”— The New York Times
It’s the dawn of the 20th century, and New York City is alive with change, innovation, and the vibrant rhythms of ragtime. This Tony Award-winning musical brings to life the intertwining stories of three families—a white, upper-middle-class family in New Rochelle, an African-American musician and his girlfriend in Harlem, and a Jewish immigrant and his daughter on the Lower East Side. Their journeys are shaped by the towering figures of the era, including the daring Harry Houdini, the visionary Booker T. Washington, the powerful J.P. Morgan, and the industrial titan Henry Ford. As their lives cross paths, Ragtime delves into issues of race, class, identity, and the American Dream, delivering a stirring, intimate production that speaks as profoundly to today’s world as it did a century ago. Recommended for ages 12+.
