Written by Neil Simon
Directed by Nicole DesLauriers
Barney Cashman is forty-seven, happily married, the father of three children, a successful businessman, and a man going through a midlife crisis. Barney has come to the realization that his whole life can be summed up in one word: nice. And Barney has realized that “nice” simply isn’t enough. He wants to experience his secret fantasies and dreams at least once, and so Barney determines to have an affair. Neil Simon’s Last of the Red Hot Lovers examines what it means to grow older, and asks the question, “What do you do when it seems as if your life hasn’t been fully lived?”

Audience Reactions:
Arsenic and Old Lace
The show will split your sides and rupture your spleen. It’s a dark comedy you don’t want to miss. You’ll be totally entertained. I think you’ll enjoy every minute of it.
Blithe Spirit
You'll get his trademark wit, with ectoplasm and ghosts ('My wife's funeral exhausted her!').
Blithe Spirit
Noel Coward wrote Blithe Spirit as a distraction during World War II and it’s the perfect comedic distraction for our own troubled times.
Mousetrap
...the succession of neatly plotted twists and the final unexpected reveal create a well-oiled comedy.
