Upcoming Shows
Cry it Out
April 5-13 at St. John’s Episcopal Church
Set in Long Island in 2024, four parents grapple with the intense lifestyle and financial choices a first baby brings. By the author of Maid for Netflix, Cry it Out is both hilarious and poignant. Anybody who remembers how life changed with a first baby or is looking forward to the birth of one needs to see this play. Directed by Molly McKitterick
Free childcare will be offered on site at St. John’s Episcopal Church at the 3 pm matinee on Saturday, April 12th! Drop-offs are welcome starting at 2 pm!
The Tempest
June 5-15 at Musser Park
The ultimate beach vacation, Shakespeare’s final play starts with a storm and takes place on a remote island inhabited by magical and colorful spirits. Chief among them is the magician, Prospero, who commands all with the tip of his wand. But even he cannot control the enchantment that ensues. This production in the park will be a perfect summertime combination of magic, betrayal, revenge, romance – and above all, laughter. Directed by Jonathan Strayer.
This production is LST’s free Shakespeare-in-the-Park offering in Musser Park. A $20 donation is requested.
Streamers
October 10-16 at a location TBD
Set in an army barracks in the early days of the Vietnam War, Streamers is an explosive portrayal of a diverse group of soldiers and their fatally intertwined destinies: Richie, a wealthy neurotic who cannot resist temptation; Billy, an earnest midwestern straight arrow; Roger, a street-wise refugee from the ghetto; Carlyle, a pathological misfit who threatens the status quo; and Sergeants Cokes and Rooney, aging alcoholics whose grimly humorous song about parachutes that fail to open gives the play its name. A classic of the American theatre, Streamers is author David Rabe’s most successful play. Directed by LST Executive Director Jeremiah Miller.
