A
mysterious stranger arrives in a sleepy 1950's town riding
a motorcycle and carrying a guitar. The town will never be
the same as the handsome stranger proceeds to get everything All
Shook Up. The MGR is pleased to be presenting the
regional premiere of this most enjoyable musical. The score
is all Elvis
and includes everything from Jail House Rock to Love
me Tender. The twists and turns of the plot are provided
by none other than William Shakespeare. The King and the Bard
make for a great combination in this charming tale of romance,
comedy and oh yeah, great music!

This
multi-Tony award winning musical will be our 3rd regional premiere
of the summer. We worked especially hard to get the rights
to this marvelous piece of theatre. It is the story of a down
on his luck Producer and neurotic Accountant who team up to
pull the con of the century. They've figured out that they
can earn more from a flop than a hit, at least that's what
they think. Merry-Go-Round Playhouse is proud to bring Mel
Brooks' singing, dancing, comic extravaganza.

Featuring
an award winning score by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, this
is the off beat tale of a love triangle between a loveable
nerd, a ditzy blond with a heart of gold and a giant man eating
plant from outer space. Not your typical love story but a wonderful
evening of musical theatre with one soaring song after another.
Sit back and fasten your seat belts for this fast paced and
completely charming musical comedy..

Church
Basement Ladies is an
outrageously witty and truly heartwarming musical about the
ladies who work in the church kitchen and prove that feeding
and “shepherding” the flock is not all sugar and spice. The
Playhouse is pleased to bring you the East Coast premiere of
the show that is packing the pews throughout the Midwest.
