Deathtrap


Jan. 31 - Feb. 16, 2025

Ensconced in his charming Connecticut home, Sidney Bruhl, a successful writer of stage thrillers, is struggling to overcome a dry spell that has resulted in a string of failures and a shortage of funds. A possible break in his fortunes occurs when he receives a script from a student in the seminar he has been conducting at a nearby college—a thriller that Sidney immediately recognizes could be a potential Broadway hit.

Sidney's plan, which he devises with his wife's help, is to offer collaboration with the student, an idea that the younger man quickly accepts. Thereafter suspense mounts steadily as the plot begins to twist and turn with devilish cleverness and with such an abundance of thrills and laughter that audiences will be enthralled until the final, startling twists.

Harvey is the story of Elwood P. Dowd and his best friend, Harvey – a pooka, presenting as a six-foot tall rabbit…who happens to be invisible. When Elwood begins introducing Harvey around town, his embarrassed sister, Veta Louise, and her daughter, Myrtle Mae, decide to commit Elwood to a sanitarium. Miscommunication occurs, however, and Veta is committed rather than Elwood! Eventually, the mistake is realized, and a frantic search begins for Elwood and the invisible Harvey. In the end, Veta realizes that she loves her brother and his pooka just as they are and doesn’t want either of them to change.
