Alabama Story by Kenneth Jones from January 4-February 11, 2018 

Alabama Story introduces the little-known true story of the State Librarian of Alabama, Emily Wheelock Reed, who was persecuted for protecting books in the Jim Crow South. It has been hailed as a social justice drama that's a "vest-pocket cousin" to To Kill A Mockingbird. In 1959, Garth Williams, a well-known writer and illustrator from the East Coast, has just published a children's book entitled The Rabbit's Wedding, in which a black rabbit marries a white rabbit. State Senator E. W. Higgins is outraged, certain that the book promotes race-mixing, and mounts a crusade to have it removed from the shelves and banned. Described as a "love letter to reading", productions have garnered both critical praise and standing ovations wherever it's been produced.

Outside Mullingar by John Patrick Shanley from February 22-April 1, 2018 

From the author of Doubt and Moonstruck comes this lovely story set in the midlands of Ireland. Anthony and Rosemary are two lovelorn neighboring farmers who haven't got a clue when it comes to love. Anthony's father Tony and Rosemary's mother Aoife have been locked in a bitter land feud. Rosemary has been romantically interested in Anthony for all of her life, but he is shy and unaware of her feelings. He also doesn't like the daily grind of farming, and his father is threatening to leave the farm to a nephew from America. For those hopless singletons to find happiness, they will have to overcome the land feud, familial rivalries, and their own romantic fears. The story is a tenderhearted portrait full of dark humor and poetic prose that reminds us it's never too late to take a chance on love.

Guys and Dolls by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows, and with music and lyrics by Frank Loesser from April 12-May 27, 2018 

For years we've wanted to revive an old-fashioned classic Broadway musical, and there could be none better than Guys and Dolls. Inspired by two short stories by Damon Runyon, it opened on Broadway in 1950 and ran for 1,200 performances, willing the Tony Award for Best Musical. The Runyon stories had been written decades earlier and featured gangsters, gamblers, and others from the New York underworld, all of whom had a unique slang way of communicating. Nathan Detroit is a gambling man who runs an illegal floating crap game, but he's being chased by local policeman Lieutenant Brannigan. The one likely spot left for his game is the Biltmore Garage, but he has to come up with $1,000 as a security deposit — so he turns to his friend Sky Masterson and proposes a bet he cannot lose: Sky has to convince prim missionary Sarah Brown to have dinner with him ... in Havana! A favorite of audiences everywhere, Guys and Dolls has been called "the perfect musical comedy".
