This darkly funny farce pits the eternal battle of pure evil against innocent fuzzy goodness.
Dr. Evil (Alex Ramirez) aided by his sidekick, Shirley (Claire LeMonnier)wants to destroy the world.
His plans are in jeopardy when a basket of kittens arrives on his doorstep, and it is his own world that gets turned upside down. |
|
Dr. Evil’s neighbors,
The Council of Evil is set to arrive any minute for the unveiling of the thermal ray — Dr. Evil’s latest weapon of world domination — and he must impress them at all costs. |
|
If the Council finds him with this basketful of precious kittens, they may never offer the financial backing he needs to complete his dastardly project. Being truly evil, there is only one solution that Dr. Evil can think of... (gasp!) the kittens must be destroyed.
But with several identical baskets going in and out of his lab, and the crazy antics of his assistant’s mummified mother, his own vampire mother, Inferna (Peyton Tinder) pushing him toward his goal of world domination, the basket of kittens may jeopardize Dr Evil's plans. |
|
Dr Evil's plans may be further complicated by Council of Evil member Countess Gothma (Jenna Cappo), aided by her ever present butler, Pierce (Daniel Cappo), and the practical-joke-loving family of were-hyenas who live next door, the kittens just may make it out alive. |
|
You’ll be rooting for the precious little fur balls the whole way...
...one thing is true, being bad has never been this much fun! |
|
Dr Evil and the Basket of Kittens will run Thursday and
Friday September 26 & 27 at 7pm in the Munster Auditorium.
Tickets are $5 at the door and are available at the Auditorium Box Office on
performance nights |

SEUSSICAL is a musical that blends several stories from many of Dr. Seuss's most famous books, and presents them in a mostly sung-through format.
The Cat in the Hat (Rohan Chatterjee) narrates the story, appearing from time to time in the narrative interacting with the characters in the Jungle of Nool and in the Land of the Whos.
|
|
The story begins with Horton, an Elephant (Steven Caraher), who discovers a speck of dust containing Whos, and places it on a clover for safe keeping.
His neighbor the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz (Morgan Papesh) is the only one in the Jungle of Nool who believes Horton, and never loses faith in him.
|
|
In that tiny speck of dust are the Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to General Gengus Khan Schmitz (Calvin Sanders) military school for thinking too many "thinks" by his parents, Mr. Mayor (Daniel Straka) and Mrs. Mayor (Alex Raycroft). |
|
However, The Cat-In The Hat encourages Jojo to continue to have his "big thinks" because anything is possible.
|
|
Horton faces a double challenge--not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers like the Sour Kangaroo (Rachel Jamrose), and other dangers plus... |
|
...he must guard an abandoned egg, left to his care by the irresponsible Mayzie La Bird.
|
|
The flamboyant Mazyie LaBird tells the secret of her plush plumage to one-feather-tailed Gertrude McFuzz, who also wants to have beautiful feathers to impress Horton. |
|
Although Horton faces ridicule, danger, kidnapping, and a trial presided over by Yertle the Turtle (Thomas Speranza), Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family, and community are challenged and emerge triumphant.

As several famous mystery writers are set to collaborate on the ultimate mystery story for a new Broadway stage production, each takes their turn at “turning the knife” about each other’s writing style.
Set in a stage reproduction of a one-time pirate mansion, Vulture’s Vault, located on a remote island, they all venture out to the actual Vulture’s Vault mansion to work on their collaboration.

Producer Jason Summers (Drew Adams) brings together these once famous mystery writers to involve the audience as they apply their individual methods to solving various murders, including:
the high-society
couple,
|
|
Brad Benedict (Billy McDunn), a young author of the James Bond school of gadgets...
|
|
Rodney Duckton
(Thomas
Speranza),

maid and the butler:
