Mao vs Manolo. BMW vs Buddha. Little Red Book vs Vogue.

Two young women -- one from the USA and the other from
China -- duke out their loves, lives and emerging ideologies

John Ford Noonan's long-running off-Broadway hit shows
how worlds collide when uptight Maude meets her sexed-up
neighbor Hannah Mae. Throughout this zany romp, the
mismatched pair fight, scheme, cheat, laugh and love.
When the play first premiered in 1980, THE NEW YORK
TIMES hailed it as "an unusually smart sitcom"
and it went on to run for two years, helping launch
the careers of Susan Sarandon and Dixie Carter.
Director: Jackie Roberts

In this wildly funny play by acclaimed comedian, actor
and playwright Steve Martin, Pablo Picasso and Albert
Einstein personify art and science as they duke it out
in a local pub. Whose truth is the real truth? Who will
have the greatest impact on the next century? Martin
discusses this and more while mixing wit and absurdity
with great aplomb. You will laugh your way into the
modern age!

Ambition…Greed…Fame…Vision: What drives our leaders?
Brace yourself this presidential election season with
a highly charged original production to rattle you,
if not your politics. The Bard's best scenes are assembled
to illuminate what goes on in the minds of those in
charge -- Shakespeare takes us into the very vortex
of power.
Conceived and directed by Jeffrey Mousseau
