Cole Porter's final Broadway Score
Music & Lyrics by Cole Porter
Book by George S. Kaufman, Leueen MacGrath & Abe Burrows
Directed by Greg MacKellan
The Cold War turns hot in Cole Porter’s final Broadway musical, a sly and sophisticated version of the classic film Ninotchka.
Ninotchka, a stern Russian commissar, is seduced by the joys of Paris and the charms of an American film agent, Steve Canfield. Wacky Hollywood star Janice Dayton, a Russian composer and three errant commissars add to the merrymaking. Porter’s legendary wit is in top form in a dazzling collection of comic songs — Stereophonic Sound, Satin and Silk, Josephine, Siberia, and beautiful ballads — the classic All of You, Paris Loves Lovers, As On Through the Seasons We Sail.
“Everything about Silk Stockings is the best Broadway has to offer — songs and script are the most memorable we’ve seen and heard since Guys and Dolls.”
— Brooks Atkinson, NY Times

- November 5 - 21, 2010
At the beginning of a new century, Silicon Valley’s prime mover and shaker is looking to market the Next New Thing. A young man pitches what seems to be a tantalizing but impossible concept: a miraculous “gizmo” that is part cell phone, part computer, addictive as all get out. Never mind that such a contraption cannot be made. (Or can it?) A wildly funny play by the author of Pick Up Ax.

Death of a Salesman
BY ARTHUR MILLER
at
The Pear Avenue Theatre
- February 25 – March 20, 2011
This iconic and moving work, widely regarded as THE defining American drama, is the heartbreaking story of an ordinary man with extraordinary, and ultimately self-destructive, expectations. Called a “working –class Oedipus Rex,” Miller’s play led all others in a recent nationwide survey of playwrights, scholars, and educators asked to name the ten most important American plays.

Speed the Plow

The Pear's production is terrific. For director Renati, Mamet's lyrical doubletalk becomes a musical score, and the production is like a concert. - John Angell Grant at The Daily News
