We celebrate the national day of giving by giving our community free theatre! Free and open to the public. No reservations necessary.

11:00 am  
Agatha Christie’s The Murder at the Vicarage - a Miss Marple Comic Mystery
by Matthew Salazar-Thompson, adapted to the stage from the novel by Agatha Christie
World renowned amateur detective Miss Jane Marple encounters a compelling murder mystery in her own sleepy little village of St. Mary Mead, where under the seemingly peaceful exterior of an English country village lurks intrigue, guilt, deception and death. Through her powers of observation, Miss Marple uncovers the hidden truths that her neighbors hold close. Five actors play over twenty-five characters in this comic mystery thriller from one of Agatha Christie's most beloved novels. Featuring Hallie Bee Bard, Leslie Hull, Brenda Lane, and more.

3:00 pm
Nacho Ate Spiderman
by Michelle Kohlos Brooks
Nacho Ate Spiderman is a four-character, dark comedy about a sunny, laid-back, progressive beach community that becomes a lot darker when Nacho, a shaggy, good-natured, loving rescue dog, eats the neighbor’s award-winning, well-bred rabbit, Spiderman. Contains adult content and language. Featuring John Lepard, Emily Sutton-Smith, and more.

7:00 pm
The One Good Thing  or  “Are Ya Patrick Swayze?”
by Joe Bravaco
The One Good Thing or “Are Ya Patrick Swayze?” is a darkly funny and deeply moving exploration of brotherhood, grief, and the invisible forces that haunt us. With humor, pathos, and a touch of the supernatural, the play asks what we carry, what we bury, and what, if anything, we’re brave enough to leave behind. Contains adult content and language. Featuring Ryan Patrick Welsh and Steve DeBruyne.
