July at 6th Street Playhouse

Jul 4, 2012 in Entertainment, Miscellany

“THE PRODUCERS” continues through July 15, 2012  Only Mel Brooks could come up with this outrageous, teeny bit offensive, off the wall story about the greatest show business scam ever. Winner of a record 12 Tony Awards, “The Producers” follows Max Bialystock and Leo Bloom as they sing and dance their way down Broadway waiting for a cash windfall, when their sure-to-flop, masterpiece of awfulness ~ “Springtime for Hitler” ~ turns out to be the biggest hit that ever landed on the Great White Way. Critically acclaimed 6th Street Playhouse performances continue every weekend through July 15, 2012 in the G.K. Hardt Theatre. Tickets are $15 to $35.

“GUTENBERG! THE MUSICAL” ~ July 6 to July 22, 2012  A pair of aspiring playwrights perform a backers’ audition for their new project – a big, splashy musical about printing press inventor Johannes Gutenberg. With an unending supply of enthusiasm, Bud and Doug sing all the songs and play all the parts in their crass historical epic, with the hope that one of the producers in attendance will give them a Broadway contract – fulfilling their ill-advised dreams. Nick Herman and Trevor Hoffmann star in this hilarious two-man musical spoof, presented in the Studio Theatre from July 6 to July 22, 2012. All tickets are $20.

“PINKY” ~ July 27 to Aug. 11, 2012  David Templeton and Liz Jahren star in this wildly funny romp that proves every love story has two sides when a romantic teenage girl named Pinky attracts the attention and determination of her nerdy friend David. Told with two separate sets of memories, “Pinky” dovetails into one offbeat and charming story recalling the ideals and desperation of teenage love and friendship. Written by David Templeton and directed by Sheri Lee Miller, “Pinky” is presented in the Studio Theatre from July 27 to Aug. 11, 2012. Tickets are $10 to $25.
