Ripcord

Comedy | May 8-23, 2026

A sunny room on an upper floor of a retirement home is prime real estate, and the fiercely territorial Abby is none too pleased to find it assigned to a new roommate: the relentlessly cheerful Marilyn. In this sharp-witted comedy, what begins as a passive-aggressive battle of wills soon escalates into a no-holds-barred prank war. Ripcord is a heartfelt and hilarious story about second chances, unlikely friendships, and the surprises that come with growing older.

The Greenbrier Ghost

Musical-Historical Drama
July 9-25, 2026

Based on the true story that led to the only U.S. murder conviction based on ghost testimony, The Greenbrier Ghost is a haunting Appalachian musical rooted in West Virginia legend. When newlywed Zona Heaster dies under suspicious circumstances, her mother claims Zona’s ghost has revealed the truth: she was murdered. Combining folklore, courtroom drama, and regional music, this original work celebrates a mother’s determination and the enduring power of justice from beyond the grave.
