The Full Monty

Six unemployed Buffalo steelworkers decide to present a strip act after seeing their wives' enthusiasm for a touring company of Chippendales.

As they prepare for the show, working through their fears and anxieties, they overcome their inner demons and find strength in their friendship.

Storybook Theatre

Pre-schoolers (ages 4-6) are invited to join us on the Fire Hall Stage for a morning of make-believe. We will begin with a dramatic reading of a classic or contemporary story and then dive into the costume trunk to create characters. We will do some light stage make-up, and turn on the stage lights. Children will then interact with others to tell the story. Parents are not required to stay, but are invited to do so if they wish. Be warned: you may be asked to wear a costume, though!
