Book, Music and Lyrics by Clark Gesner
(Revised 1999) by Michael Gesner and Andrew Lippa


July 17, 18 & 19* • 8pm

Based on the famous cartoon characters of Charles M. Schultz, this 1999 rework of the original 1970’s Broadway show will be a musical treat for the entire family. Charlie Brown takes the stage with all of his friends including Sally, Linus, Lucy, Schroeder and of course, Snoopy.

Come and experience "an average day in the life of Charlie Brown." A day made up of little moments picked from all the days of the round headed boy. From Valentine's Day to baseball season, from wild optimism to utter despair, this adventure mixes together the lives of his friends (both human and non-human) for one very eventful musical adventure!

Tickets: $15 Adults, $12 Seniors & Students
$10 children 12 & under

It’s 5:00am, he’s broke, and his woman’s gone. Just when our hero, Nomax, hits his rock bottom, five guys named Moe jump out of his radio to put Nomax back on track with the “Choo Choo Cha Boogie”, “Is you is or is you ain’t my Baby”, “Let the Good Times Roll”, and all your Louis Jordan favorites!

With more than fifty top ten singles on the rhythm and blues charts, this great composer and saxophonist brought a popular new slant to jazz that paved the way for the rock-and-roll of the 1950s.

Tickets:
8pm Shows: $18 Adults, $16 Seniors & Students

Adult Comedy Night
featuring...
John Mulaney

nobodies of comedy logo
Saturday, August 2 • 8pm

A night of hilarious adult humor!

A Chicago native, most agree that John should have been born 100 years ago as his love of history and old-timey jargon comes through in his improv, stand-up and films. He co-wrote the ECNY award winning short-film Cavalcade of Personalities, which appeared on Comedy Central's Jump Cuts, and is the co-creator of I Love the 30s comedy video. A regular on VH1's Best Week Ever, John shares his dislike of the Liberty Bell and his confusion over "Goths" wherever he goes.



With guest opener Kumail Nanjiani

If you think that you know everything a Pakistani-Iowan might have to say, think again. Kumail's comedy covers a broad range of topics, from giant squids to units of measurement, from men on the moon to his love of chocolate. He leaves audiences gasping for air and has been featured on Fox News and was a finalist for the HBO Aspen Comedy Festival.

Tickets: $17
*LPCA Members: $15

Suzy is certain the new neighbor is responsible so she and Neville search his house. With nearly 30 locations to choose from, what happens next is up to the audience!

mr a's amazing maze plays
“...a classic search...the audience helps choose which way they go - through secret panels, up ladders, inside chimneys. The actors have no idea which way they’ll be headed next! It's always exciting, sometimes hair-raising.”

Following in the tradition of the Quebec Circus, Jean Saucier, master equilibrist, juggler, trick cyclist, acrobat and magician performs his feats from dizzying heights while Patrick Côté, burlesque clown, expert roller skater and drummer, innocently tries his best to be the (imperfect) assistant. This is family entertainment at its finest! Deliriously funny - filled with unforgettable moments.
