Join us for a series of one act plays directed by Theatre Siena students. Each evening will feature a different set of plays.
Often considered the greatest play ever written, Hamlet tells the story of love, murder, and revenge. When the ghost of the King of Denmark tells his son Hamlet to avenge his murder by killing the new king, Hamlet's uncle, Hamlet feigns madness, contemplates life, death and seeks revenge.
Come along and listen to the lullaby of Broadway. 42nd Street celebrates Broadway, Times Square, and the magic of show biz with wit, humor, and pizzazz. At the height of the Great Depression, aspiring chorus girl Peggy Sawyer comes to the big city from Allentown, PA, and soon lands her first big job in the ensemble of a glitzy new Broadway show. Just before opening night, the leading lady breaks her ankle. Will Peggy be able to step in and become a star? The score is chock-full of Broadway standards, including "You're Getting to Be a Habit With Me," "Dames," "We're In the Money," "Lullaby of Broadway," "Shuffle Off to Buffalo" and "Forty-Second Street."
