Shakespeare Festival
On the Opera House Main Stage!
July 21 - 30th, 2023
With festival ambassador (and playing Henry IV) Johnathan Cullen
Richard II - chronicling the historical rise and fall of King Richard the Second (and his usurpation by Henry IV) Shakespeare’s play is one of political intrigue mixed with emotional pathos. Both judgmental of, and sympathetic to the titular character, the play addresses a theme present in all of Shakespeare’s history plays: who has a better claim to the throne, the man anointed by God? Or the man supported by the people?
Directed by Grant Turner (also playing Richard) and Festival special guest Jonathan Cullen (also playing Henry).

Disney's Tarzan
On the Opera House Main Stage!
September 15th - October 7
Directed by Caitlin Marshall & Terry Hale
Based on Disney's epic animated musical adventure and Edgar Rice Burrough's Tarzan of the Apes, Tarzan features heart-pumping music by rock legend, Phil Collins, and a book by Tony Award-winning playwright, David Henry Hwang. High-flying excitement and hits, like the Academy Award-winning "You'll Be in My Heart," as well as "Son of Man" and "Two Worlds," make Tarzan an unforgettable theatrical experience.
Washed up on the shores of West Africa, an infant boy is taken in and raised by gorillas who name him Tarzan. Apart from striving for acceptance from his ape father, Tarzan's life is mostly monkey business until a human expedition treks into his tribe's territory, and he encounters creatures like himself for the first time. Tarzan struggles to navigate a jungle, thick with emotion, as he discovers his animal upbringing clashing with his human instincts.
Camelot
at the Jewel Theater
November 3rd - 25th
Directed by Grant Turner
The legendary love triangle of King Arthur, Guenevere, and Sir Lancelot leaps from the pages of T.H. White’s novel in Lerner and Loewe’s award-winning, soaring musical.
Borrowing from the Arthurian legends, Lerner and Loewe’s Camelot is the duo’s fantastical masterpiece which triumphed on Broadway in a legendary original production that lead to a film version, and numerous revivals in New York, London and across the globe. Its Original Broadway Cast Album topped the charts for 60 weeks, with a rich score boasting such gems as "If Ever I Would Leave You," “I Loved You Once in Silence,” "The Lusty Month of May," and of course, "Camelot."
An idealistic young King Arthur hopes to create a kingdom built on honor and dignity, embodied by his Knights of The Round Table. His Ideals, however, are tested when his lovely queen, Guenevere, falls in love with the young Knight, Lancelot and the fate of the kingdom hangs in the balance.
