 Pushover         Turnabout

Pushover

Synopsis:
This unusual musical tells the story of Samson with reverence for biblical facts, yet with an eye to the wryly incongruous behavior of its hero-- and his impact upon the young Israelites who look up to him, despite his casual approach to his vows. Musical styling will surprise and delight you, ranging as it does from waltz to beguine to ragtime, perfectly suited to the widely varying moods of the plot. The much reprised and hilarious "Sincerity Rag" will start your audiences' feet tapping.

Turnabout

Synopsis:
Based on The Book of Esther, Turnabout is a lyrically hilarious tale incorporating the world's first recorded beauty contest and lots of plotting, counter plotting and treachery. Dealing reverently with good guys and irreverently with the bad guys, it offers an entertaining evening that demonstrates the futility of all plotters who dare to scheme against the chosen of God. How Esther is selected as Queen, foils the villain and saves her people from destruction makes for an inspiring and uproarious theatrical event.
