Perfect Arrangement

OCT 11, 12, 13, 18, 19, 20

Comedy/drama by Topher Payne
Rated PG13

It’s 1950, and new colors are being added to the Red Scare. Two U.S. State Department employees, Bob and Norma, have been tasked with identifying sexual deviants within their ranks. There’s just one problem: Both Bob and Norma are gay and have married each other’s partners as a carefully constructed cover. Inspired by the true story of the earliest stirrings of the American gay rights movement, madcap classic sitcom-style laughs give way to provocative drama as two “All-American” couples are forced to stare down the closet door.

“As hiding gets harder, pitch-perfect comedy ensues: slamming doors, strange disguises, preposterous excuses… In our own era of surveillance and paranoia, their mid-century problems don’t feel so far away.” - The New Yorker

An adult comedy by Norm Foster   
Rated Adult

From the same playwright that wrote last season’s hit comedy, Looking. Middle-aged couple Daphne and Rollie and their friend Alex have found themselves out of work and out of luck. So, when they come across a mistakenly rented X-rated movie, they get the idea to make their own porno film for some quick cash. The only problem is none of them want to star in it themselves. As if on cue, Jill, a birthday telegram messenger, arrives on their doorstep accidentally and their cast is set. A light-hearted comedy told from the perspective of Rollie, the story’s charming narrator, Skin Flick puts a steamy spotlight on a group of innocent people navigating the world of pornography.

*An Adult Rated comedy due to theme.

Moon Over Buffalo

MAY 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 10

Comedy by Ken Ludwig    
Rated PG

In the madcap comedy tradition of Lend Me a Tenor and A Comedy of Tenors, the hilarious Moon Over Buffalo centers on George and Charlotte Hay, fading stars of the 1950s. Now, they’re playing Private Lives and Cyrano De Bergerac in rep in Buffalo, New York with five actors.

On the brink of a disastrous split-up caused by George’s dalliance with a young ingénue, they receive word that they might just have one last shot at stardom: Frank Capra is coming to town to see their matinee, and if he likes what he sees, he might cast them in his movie remake of The Scarlet Pimpernel. Unfortunately for George and Charlotte, everything that could go wrong does go wrong, abetted by a visit from their daughter’s clueless fiancé and hilarious uncertainty about which play they’re actually performing, caused by Charlotte’s deaf, old stage-manager mother who hates every bone in George’s body.
