    The Three Musketeers

    By Robert Kauzlaric

    Adapted from the novel by Alexandre Dumas

    Directed by Drew Vidal

    November 15-16, 20-23 at 7:30 p.m.
    November 17 and 24 at 2:30 p.m.

    In pursuit of his dream of becoming a Musketeer, young d’Artagnan travels to Paris, where he befriends the legendary Three Inseperables: Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. His acts of bravery earn the respect of King Louis XIII but ensnare d’Artagnan in the deadly schemes of Cardinal Richelieu and the beautiful yet depraved Milady Clarik. When the love of his life, Constance Bonacieux, is kidnapped on the eve of war, d’Artagnan must weigh his loyalties to king and country, comrades-in-arms, and the callings of his heart. Journey from Paris to London, from countryside taverns to glittering palaces, from a humble farm in Gascony to the siege of La Rochelle, in an epic tale of passion, intrigue, and adventure. “All for one, and one for all!

    This adaptation of The Three Musketeers was originally commissioned by the Illinois Shakespeare Festival (Deb Alley, Artistic Director), and premiered there in 2010.

    English Made Simple/Time Flies

    Directed by Ben Dostalek

    English Made Simple: A young man and woman meet at a party, and their immediate romantic attraction is translated into comically unromantic grammar lessons as they struggle to free themselves from the banal constrictions of party talk.

    Time Flies: Two lonely but sweet young mayflies meet at a pond and really hit it off. Unfortunately, Horace and May watch a nature program on this first night out and discover they have a lifespan of only one day – and their lives are half over.

    Seagulls

    Directed by Audrey Walters

    Written by Caryl Churchill

    A department store clerk has recently become famous for her telekinetic powers after nabbing a shoplifter by willing the item he stole right up out of his bag. On her way to Harvard for scientific testing, her powers desert her. Is this the result of meeting an odd fan? Perhaps her awareness that now she is a commodity to be exploited is responsible? Or is it that strange, glowing box with a rocket on the side?

    A Bethrothal

    Directed by Tyler Robertson

    Written by Lanford Wilson

     

    A warm-hearted and humorous study of two fanatical iris-breeders who meet at a flower show. Annoyed and disappointed that their wonderful creations have been so rudely ignored by the judges, they eventually pool their anger ad resources resulting in the birth of an exciting new project – the creation of a cross-breed of their two would-be champions which would surely rock the horticultural world!
