WEST COAST PREMIERE WEST COAST PREMIERE SAN DIEGO PREMIERE Amadeus SEP 4 – 29, 2019 By Peter Shaffer Directed by Richard Baird With the glorious music of Mozart as a backdrop, Peter Shaffer’s Tony Award winning tale of composers Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Antonio Salieri starts our season on a rousing note. Told with humor, intrigue and theatricality, AMADEUS explores two men — one consumed with jealousy and the other blissfully unaware of his extraordinary gifts. This audience favorite will enrich your understanding of a musical genius and your appreciation of a master playwright. The Sunshine Boys OCT 23 – NOV 17, 2019 By Neil Simon Directed by Jeffrey Moss The late Neil Simon continues to reign as America’s favorite playwright. THE SUNSHINE BOYS showcases his brilliant ear for sidesplitting dialogue and his sharp eye for physical comedy. Yet, beneath the raucous laughter are two vulnerable people struggling to make sense of their lives. Simon’s memorable characters are endearing and profoundly touching. You won’t want to miss this beloved comedy. Bloomsday JAN 8 – FEB 2, 2020 By Steven Dietz Directed by Andrew Barnicle If you’ve ever wished you could go back and have a second chance at a decision you made back in your 20s, this winsome tale will linger with you. Filled with humor, this emotional story captures the intensity of experiences as an older couple retraces their steps to discover their younger selves. BLOOMSDAY gives us a funny, touching and stark look at what it is to be in love no matter what stage of life you’re in. The Outsider FEB 19 – MAR 15, 2020 By Paul Slade Smith Directed by David Ellenstein THE OUTSIDER is a razor-sharp, hilarious satire of modern American politics and an inspirational tribute to democracy. Overflowing with clever plot twists portraying the contemporary political climate, Paul Slade Smith’s (Unnecessary Farce) play is a fun-house mirror, held up to reflect our often confounding governmental system. If you’re overwhelmed by today’s headlines, this thoroughly non-partisan laugh-fest is just what you need. The Homecoming APR 8 – MAY 3, 2020 By Harold Pinter Directed by David Ellenstein Often regarded as Harold Pinter’s most enduring play, this masterwork of family warfare is set in an all-male household that relies on fantasy and one-upmanship for its very existence. This toxic, but familiar pattern is disrupted when a long-absent son returns with his new wife. Her presence ignites an explosive situation, one that is vicious, funny and unsettling. Tony Award winner for Best Play. Suitable for mature audiences only. Human Error MAY 27 – JUN 21, 2020 By Eric Pfeffinger Directed by Jane Page Full of warmth, heart and outrageous humor, two couples — one liberal, the other, conservative — are forced to meet and establish a relationship with binding implications due to a medical mix-up. It’s an uncharted journey for these unlikely friends, one that is brimming with surprises and self-revelation along the way. You won’t want to miss this engaging and hilarious West Coast Premiere. Forbidden Broadway’s Greatest Hits JUL 8 - AUG 9, 2020 Created and Written by Gerard Alessandrini Directed by William Selby Celebrate Broadway’s unforgettable musical legends!
