We are no longer accepting director submission for the 2012-2013 season. Although we are still finalizing our director selection, we are pleased to announce the following shows have been chosen for our upcoming 2012-2013 season.</p> <p class="body"><span class="title">Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde</span> (October 2012) </p> <p class="body"><span class="credits">by Jeffrey Hatcher from Robert Louis Stevenson</span></p> <p class="body">The timeless tale about the good doctor, Henry Jekyll, and his dark echo, Edward Hyde, is brought to the stage in a fiercely theatrical new adaptation. Stripping away the melodrama and romantic distractions of the novel, Hatcher develops a smart and suspenseful new take on Stevenson&rsquo;s look at the evil that lurks in the hearts of men. Against the backdrop of Victorian London, the respectable Dr. Jekyll has begun to display alarmingly erratic behavior. At the same time, a brutal figure haunts the city s streets, committing assault and murder under the cloak of darkness and dismal London fog. A terrified community tries to learn the secret of the deaths and discovers much more in the dark depths of the human heart.</p> <p class="body"><span class="title">The Drowsy Chaperone </span> (March 2013) </p> <p class="body"><span class="credits">book by Bob Martin and Don McKellar and music and lyrics by Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison. Director Don Bovingloh </span></p> <p class="body">The show won the Tony Award for Best Book and Best Score. It started as a spoof of old musicals written by friends for the wedding of Martin and his wife, Janet. <i>The Drowsy Chaperone</i> is an homage to American musicals of the Jazz Age, examining the effect musicals have on the fans who adore them</p> <p class="body"><span class="title">Enchanted April</span> (April 26-May 11, 2013) </p> <p class="body"><span class="credits">by Matthew Barber, Adapted from the novel by Elizabeth Von Armin. Director Carin Zakes </span></p> <p class="body">Elizabeth von Arnim&rsquo;s novel tells the story of four dissimilar women in 1920s England who leave their damp and rainy environs to go on a holiday to a secluded coastal castle in Italy. Mrs Arbuthnot and Mrs Wilkins, who belong to the same ladies&rsquo; club but have never spoken, become acquainted after reading a newspaper advertisement for a &rsquo;small medieval Italian castle on the shores of the Mediterranean to be let furnished for the month of April&lsquo;. They find some common ground in that both are struggling to make the best of unhappy marriages. Having decided to seek other ladies to help share expenses, they reluctantly take on the waspish, elderly Mrs Fisher and the stunning, but aloof, Lady Caroline Dester. The four women come together at the castle and find rejuvenation in the tranquil beauty of their surroundings, rediscovering hope and love.</p> <br> </div></div> <div class="tiny"> &copy; 2012 The Wilton Playshop, Wilton, CT <br> Site designed and maintained by Gini Frank Fischer/Artful Studios<br> </div></div> <div class="blast"> <div class="poster"><img src="img/steel_mag_poster.jpg" alt="poster"></div> </div> </body> </html>
