Starting on Thursday evening you can see A MUSICAL WITHOUT SONGS...yes..... you read that correctly! Bringing Down the House is a musical without songs. How does that work? Well, you just have to see it. ------ Jules, Sydney, and Elliot have some big dreams. An up-and-coming musical team, they’ve rented a creaky old theater for six weeks to mount a production of their new show. Top Broadway investors are slated to attend, so the team is going to need every minute to rehearse the musical. To their dismay, they discover that the theater is scheduled for demolition the very next day, and they don’t have the money to rent another venue! There’s only one thing to do: throw the show together in just two hours and present it to any investors who can make it on such short notice. ------ Ever hear of a musical without songs? It just might make this madcap comedy a first! Thursday, April 10 at 7:00 Friday, April 11 at 7:00 Saturday, April 12 at 7:00 Sunday, April 13 at 2:30 Monday, April 14 at 7:00 Admission taken at the door.
