The Importance of Being Earnest
24 July – 13 August
Witty repartee, brazen lies and polished hypocrisy collide in Victorian England as four lovers battle against a society driven by status, wealth and (most of all) style. A razor-sharp rom-com directed by Christine Mosere and Kayla Swain.


Twelfth Night
7–8 August
Shipwrecked twins, yellow stockings and overpowering love—all the stops have been pulled in Illyria. A dizzying comedy about the ups and downs of love, learning to laugh at oneself and the virtues and vices of being a fool.
Much Ado About Nothing
21–29 August
In sun-scorched Messina (which runs on wit, gossip and the perfect put-down), two merry warriors swear off love forever just as everyone commits to making them fall. But a jealous troublemaker begins a real battle with a vicious lie. Can tongues sharpened to wound be turned to healing? A story of sparkling tension, terrible decisions and a wedding that nearly isn’t. Directed by Aaron Angello.
