After the initial dinner, a gramophone recording accuses each guest of a murder they’re alleged to have committed at some point in their past, including the butler and housekeeper.

Powerful, angry and surprising, Tom Wright's acclaimed play imagines an alternative history of the person who came to be known as “the Elephant Man.” It restores Joseph Merrick to the centre of his own story: a man fighting for his right to be and to belong. In addition to Merrick, it also features an incredible cast of mostly female characters in Joseph’s life – including a Ringmaster, a famous actress, and a dying woman, amongst many others.

The Cover of Life
Theatre Off The Square
Tood, Weetsie and Sybill are brides in rural Louisiana in 1943. Each married a Cliffert brother. The men are off to war and a local news story about these young wives keeping the home fires burning intrigues Henry Luce. He decides that they belong on the cover of Life Magazine and assigns Kate Miller to the story. She has been covering the war in Europe and, though she views doing a “women's piece” as a career set-back, she accepts because it will be her first cover story. Kate spends a week with the Cliffert women and her haughty urban attitude gives way to sympathy as she begins to understand them while coming face-to-face with her own powerlessness in a man's world. Filled with charm and fun, The Cover of Life is a deeply affecting story about the struggle for self-worth.

Mary Poppins Jr
Garland Civic Theatre
Based on P.L. Travers’ beloved book series of the same name, Mary Poppins became an immediate hit when it premiered as a movie musical in 1964. Years later, the same magic was brought to the stage! It was a hit and a shortened JR version was born. In the musical, Bert, a jack-of-all-trades, invites us into the world of London, England in 1910 — and, specifically, into the dysfunctional home of the Banks family. Jane and Michael, the young Banks children, have sent yet another nanny packing, dismissing these children as hopelessly and irrevocably spoiled and misbehaved. With a father who works constantly and mother who is always distracted, Jane and Michael have suffered without strong caretaking forces in their lives. Then the magical Mary Poppins flies in on the wind with her parrot umbrella, bringing with her a combination of whimsy, magic, and disciplined common sense to the children’s lives. Together, they go on memorable and magical adventures — and also learn the importance of a tidy nursery and of taking the medicine they need (with a spoonful of sugar, of course). Mary Poppins’ transformational influence does not stop with the children — eventually, she teaches the grown-ups, as well, to open up and realize that “anything can happen if you let it.”

Mother Play
Uptown Players
Uptown Players proudly presents the regional premiere of Mother Play, the deeply personal and hauntingly resonant new work by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Paula Vogel. Spanning from 1962 to today, this semi-autobiographical drama follows Phyllis Herman, a fiercely independent single mother, and her two children as they endure five evictions, emotional upheavals, and the ongoing tension between unconditional love and self-preservation. With piercing honesty and dark humor, Vogel explores themes of identity, queerness, family dysfunction, and survival through a queer lens. As the children grow and find their own paths—sometimes in spite of their mother’s influence—the play reveals a vivid portrait of resilience, generational conflict, and the shifting landscape of American values. Hailed as “heartbreaking yet wickedly funny,” Mother Play is a bold and compassionate examination of motherhood and the lasting impact of the stories we inherit—and the ones we choose to rewrite. Don’t miss this gripping regional premiere, at the intimate Theatre Three.

The Cottage
Greenville Theatre Works
It was supposed to be a romantic getaway weekend. It has become... complicated. When Sylvia arrives at a charming English cottage for a secret rendezvous with her not-quite-ex-husband, she's ready for passion, intrigue, and maybe a little light reconciliation. What she gets instead is a weekend of escalating chaos, mistaken identities, slamming doors, and more people showing up than any cottage—no matter how charming—was ever meant to hold. There's her husband. And his wife. Wait—his OTHER wife? And who's that in the cupboard? Why is someone hiding under the bed? IS THAT A BODY?! Sandy Rustin's The Cottage is a love letter to classic British farce—think Noël Coward meets a runaway train. It's a whip-smart, breakneck comedy where every entrance makes things exponentially worse (in the best possible way), every secret spawns three more secrets, and the lies pile up faster than the characters can keep track of them. Expect impeccable comic timing, spectacular misunderstandings, and the kind of laughter that makes your face hurt. This is theatre at its most gleefully ridiculous—sophisticated, silly, and absolutely irresistible. Warning: May cause uncontrollable giggling, admiration for anyone who can keep a straight face onstage, and a sudden desire to check your own closets for stowaways. Pack your bags for the cottage. Just... maybe don't tell anyone you're going.
