Good Night, Oscar
Anything can happen on live TV. And one night, it did.
It’s 1958, and Jack Paar hosts the hottest late-night talk-show on television. His favorite guest? Character actor, pianist and wild card Oscar Levant. Famous for his witty one-liners, Oscar has a favorite: “There’s a fine line between genius and insanity; I have erased this line.” Tonight, Oscar will prove just that when he appears live on national TV in an episode that Paar’s audience—and the rest of America—won’t soon forget. Good Night, Oscar explores the nexus of humor and heartbreak, the ever-dwindling distinction between exploitation and entertainment, and the high cost of baring one’s soul for public consumption.
Always... Patsy Cline
Based on a heartfelt and powerful true story, Ted Swindley’s Always…Patsy Cline celebrates one of the most popular female country singers in recording history. Patsy Cline’s legendary voice and meteoric rise to stardom captivated America, and this loving tribute is told through the eyes of her biggest fan—and unlikely friend—Louise Seger. The stage comes alive with Patsy’s greatest hits, including “Crazy,” “Walkin’ After Midnight,” “I Fall to Pieces,” and many more.
Wonderland
Billed as a modern-day retelling of a classic story, Wonderland follows a woman, Alice, living in current-day New York City, juggling a failing marriage, motherhood, and intense work environment to the point of challenging her own sense of identity. In a dream, she aligns herself with the famed Alice of Alice in Wonderland, hilariously skewing reality, meanwhile working through obstacles of unexpected characters: a Cheshire Cat with a Latin flair, a delightfully dotty Queen of Hearts, and of course, a malicious Mad Hatter. Alice finds a new sense of balance and strength within herself, as she realizes the power of true love.
