MAYTAG VIRGIN
By Audrey Cefaly

Directed by Kristin Hughes
October 24- November 8, 2025
(Friday & Saturday at 8 pm, Sunday at 3pm)
​

Maytag Virgin is a tender, character-driven play by Audrey Cefaly that follows the evolving

relationship between two neighbors in a small Southern town. Lizzy, a recently widowed

schoolteacher, and Jack, a quiet newcomer also dealing with loss, slowly form a connection as

they navigate grief, healing, and the possibility of new love. Filled with humor, warmth, and

emotional depth, the play explores how two people can find hope and companionship in the

wake of personal tragedy.

CHURCH & STATE
By Jason Odell Williams
 
Directed by Dave Sheppard
January 23- February 7, 2026
(Fridays & Saturdays at 8 pm, Sundays at 3 pm)
 

 

Church & State is a sharp, funny, and heartfelt play that asks big questions about faith, politics, and honesty through the lens of one very bad campaign weekend. Just days before his re-election, a North Carolina senator makes an offhand remark about God and guns, throwing his team and his marriage into chaos. This timely dramedy is fast, witty, and surprisingly moving, perfect for audiences who love smart, character-driven theatre.

UNNECESSARY FARCE
By Paul Slade Smith

Directed by Kevin Nessman
April 3-18, 2026
(Friday & Saturday at 8 pm, Sunday at 3pm)
​

Unnecessary Farce is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud comedy by Paul Slade Smith that combines

classic farce elements with a modern twist. The plot follows two inexperienced cops who set up a

sting operation in a cheap motel to catch a corrupt mayor—but things spiral hilariously out of

control. With mistaken identities, slammed doors, a hitman in a kilt, and escalating

misunderstandings, the play delivers non-stop physical comedy and witty dialogue, making it a

favorite for audiences seeking pure entertainment.

LOSING PATIENTS
By A. Duke & Virginia Cate
 
Directed by Kelsey McDonough
June 5-20, 2026
(Fridays & Saturdays at 8 pm, Sundays at 3 pm)
 

 

Losing Patients is a madcap comedic farce by A. Duke and Virginia Cate set in the Silver Crest

Manor—a once-respected nursing home besieged by all manner of chaos. A violent

thunderstorm rages outside, while inside a drug dealer is on the loose, an escaped mental patient

is hunted by the police, and a trio of scheming scoundrels spin a web of identity theft and

deception. As patients mysteriously vanish and impostors emerge, the confusion—and hilarity—

escalates through mistaken identities, double-dealing, and surprise twists. Hold onto your

walkers: Losing Patients blends outrageous physical comedy with unexpected plot turns right up

to its surprise finish.
