Musical Theatre Radio presents "Be Our Guest"

What if Gypsy Rose Lee (from Gypsy the Musical) met Gypsy-Rose Blanchard (current true crime darling)?

For millennia, musical theater writers never dared to ask: If your mother sucks, can you kill her?

Well… that changes now 💅

Blanchard's Turn: A Killer Gypsy Musical dives headfirst into the life of true crime darling turned social media influencer, Gypsy-Rose Blanchard.

Featuring a twisted reimagining of the original Gypsy score by Sondheim and Styne, this absolutely unhinged parody explores mommy issues 👩‍👧, getting famous 📸, and the grand American theater tradition of making musicals out of wildly inappropriate subject matter 🎭. Honestly, it’s probably too soon. But we figured ten years was tasteful enough ⏳

After all, if she can make millions telling her story from reality TV and a memoir…why can’t we make a cool $75 on this concert? 💸

It’s not like we killed her mom 🙄🔪

Twelve Maids takes you behind-the-scenes of life in Ithaca during Odysseus’s journey in The Odyssey, from the never-before-heard point of view of a palace maid. Often silenced or glossed over, Penelope’s maids are given a voice for the very first time in this dynamic new musical. Our stellar cast will transport you to Bronze Age Greece, where love, loyalty, and laughs await. Featuring breathtaking ballads, dazzling duets, and electric ensemble numbers, Twelve Maids is sure to excite lovers of myth and musical theater alike.

When Anne Boleyn returned from the courts of Flanders to her childhood home at Hever Castle, what augury could have foretold the atomic impact that the young woman would have on the very fabric of England? Before long, the beautiful Boleyn girl had won over Henry VIII, who was willing to commit national apostasy to make her his queen. Henry risked not only wars but the wrath of God for Anne – though her transfixing influence on the King left courtiers wondering just how, precisely, she had seduced him so completely. She was a harlot, they said, that much was for sure, but might the bewitching Anne Boleyn actually be a witch? What with the unfortunate lack of heir, her violent delights soon found violent ends, and the girl from Hever Castle found herself quite literally on the Tudor chopping block.Sat Aug 2nd - Sat 30th

BALLS: THE MONSTER-CATCHIN’ MUSICAL COMÉDY

A wild musical appears!

“BALLS” is an action-packed immersive experience about the MONSTERS we collect and the FIGHTS we choose to fight. Be the very first to start a “NEW GAME” in this one-of-a-kind extravaganza, overflowing with 8-bit bops, improvised battles, and 151 original Collectabuddies.

MONSTERS WERE SCARY. AND THE PROFESSOR WAS SCARED. So he squished ‘em down into little balls, and created a safer world: where monsters are pets - and pets do what they’re told. But when these “Collectabuddies” begin to BITE BACK, the Professor and his piece-of-sh*t grandson are forced to battle their past conceptions of right and wrong to save the game they helped create.

'In the smoke-choked backrooms of 1920s Toronto, where jazz and bootleg liquor flow like an untamed river, 'The Man in the Iron Mask is reborn as a Prohibition-era musical. Twins—one, a ruthless crime lord draped in silk and sin; the other, a prisoner lost in the underbelly of King St —are bound by fate and a secret buried in blood. As speakeasy ballads and brass-fueled anthems drive the tale, a band of aging gangsters, once the city’s kings, unite for one last job: a coup against tyranny. Justice and jazz collide in a high-stakes battle where the mask must fall.

Earth Planet Universe: The John Muir Legacy Musical is a musical production exploring the path forged by John Muir, often considered the father of our National Parks. Join him on a 'hike' in the air-conditioned comfort of the Art Barn to explore National Park sites and learn about his life and the Native Americans who lived in each location for millennia. As these stories intertwine through song and dialogue, the audience is inspired by John Muir’s example to ask themselves what legacy they want to leave for others.
