AUGUST

 

 

The Mason Street Warehouse season begins June 25th to July 18th with the Broadway musical, “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels". This is a hilarious tale of conniving deception. Two con artists, one suave and sophisticated, the other crass and small time, end up working the same territory - the French Riviera.

Dixie Longate, the fast-talking Tupperware Lady, packed up her catalogues, left her children in an Alabama trailer park and took Off- Broadway by storm! July 21-August 1.

Betty Jean, Cindy Lou, Missy and Suzy, are four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline skirts and with voices to match! At their 1958 prom we are treated to classics from the 50's and 60's including "Lollipop"; "Dream Lover" and "It's My Party". August 6-22

An Improv theatrical experience; three actors and pianist make up a fully staged musical, complete with songs, lyrics and choreography, ON THE SPOT!  August 25-28.
