INTO THE WOODS
Presented by Act 1 Theater Arts
Once Upon a Time, a Baker and his Wife journey into the woods on a quest to lift a witch's curse. On the way they cross paths with Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Cinderella, and a menagerie of other fairy tale characters. They pursue individual wishes until their stories become entangled in unexpected ways - revealing what happens after "happily ever after." Stephen Sondheim's wickedly witty score weaves a magical spell with such bewitching gems as "Children Will Listen," "Giants In The Sky" and "No One Is Alone."

THE COMPLEAT WORKS OF SHAKESPEARE, ABRIDGED
A Shakespeare in the Vines Production
Starring Brandon Dean, Mike Tubman and Eric Ruiter
The record breaking hit! All 37 Plays in 97 Minutes!
An irreverent, fast-paced romp through the Bard's plays, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) was London's longest-running comedy - 10 years at the Criterion Theatre. Praised by the Los Angeles Times as "wildly funny" and by the Montreal Gazette as "the funniest show you are likely to see in your entire lifetime."
Warning!: This show is a high-speed roller-coaster type condensation of all of Shakespeare's plays, and is not recommended for people with heart ailments, bladder problems, inner-ear disorders and/or people inclined to motion sickness. The Shakespeare in the Vines Company cannot be held responsible for expectant mothers.

ALLISON CORNELL IN CONCERT
Allison is touring in support of her independently released debut CD, "Pretty Colored Lights". The album, which contains 10 original tracks and two covers of artists Shania Twain and Joe Jackson whom she's toured with, is an eclectic blend of jazz infused pop, R&B and Americana. It features Allison's singing and arranging, as well as her keyboard, violin/viola, guitar, and mandolin playing. The guest musicians on these recording include: Joe Jackson, Graham Maby, Cyndi Lauper, Mike Viseglia (longtime Suzanne Vega bassist) and guitar aces Jon Herington and Kat Dyson.
Allison's solo show is comprised of her vocals, a dual keyboard setup and an acoustic guitar, with enhancements from her laptop computer which fill in the vocal and instrumental performance with a few elements from the fully produced cd.
"I Can't Get Over You," Allison's pop-ballad, recently won first prize in a contest called UNISONG. Also a winner is her Pop Uptempo / Dance "Automatic" which won TOP 20 FINALIST. No stranger to the rigors of the road Allison has worked with a diverse range of artists including Joe Jackson, Cyndi Lauper, Suzanne Vega, Paula Cole, Shania Twain, Angelique Kidjo, Jann Arden, Tracy Chapman, Pat Benatar, Ann-Margret and Ronnie Spector. Her recording credits include work with Cyndi Lauper, Jann Arden, Pat Benatar, Joe Jackson, Gabrielle Roth and the Mirrors, Rachael Sage, Carter Burwell, Angelo Badelmente and Branford Marsalis.
