2023 Leishman Hall Performances

In the Leishman Performance Hall, (our Black-Box Theatre) we offer a more intimate and up-close theatrical experience, and this year we are excited to present The Lion in Winter.  Everyone loves spending time with family at Christmas, but things are tense when any misstep you make can cost you your inheritance, your lands, or your claim to the throne.  The royal family of King Henry II gathers in the year 1173 when all the intrigue, family secrets, and good wine start flowing.  Queen Eleanor, Princes Richard, Geoffrey, John, and King Phillipe of France all have plots and schemes to mastermind if they want to win this political game of chess. The Lion in Winter will not disappoint.

 

Our 2nd Black Box show is the delightful play, Dear Ruth

Set in the WWll era, a young girl secretly corresponds with a soldier overseas in an effort to support the troops and raise morale.  Recognizing that’s she too young to be taken seriously, she signs the name of her beautiful, but unwitting, older sister Ruth. The plot thickens as the love-struck soldier returns from the war to find that the object of his affection is already engaged.  Dear Ruth combines chaos, comedy, and romance to create this timeless, delightful show.
