Men on Boatsby Jaclyn Backhaus
NOVEMBER 7-9, 14-17, 2025in the Jesse H. and Mary Gibbs Jones Theater
Ten explorers. Four boats. One Grand Canyon. MEN ON BOATS is the true(ish) history of an 1869 expedition, when a one-armed captain and a crew of insane yet loyal volunteers set out to chart the course of the Colorado River.
“…off-the-canyon-walls funny…” —Variety.
“[MEN ON BOATS] is marvelously destabilizing both as history and theater. The stalwartness and selfishness of the adventurers—their cockiness and cluelessness—become biting satire when sent up by women.” —New York Magazine.
“…you will surely want to spend time with the hearty title characters of MEN ON BOATS…[a] rollicking history pageant…MEN ON BOATS makes canny use of the obvious distance between performers and their roles to help bridge the distance between then and now…The tone is comic, but never cute or camp. And ultimately, you feel, the play respects its bold if fallible pioneers, in all their natural bravery and fearfulness.” —The New York Times.

BKLYN The MusicalBook, Music, and Lyrics by Mark Schoenfeld and Barri McPherson
February 20-22, 27-28, and mARCH 1, 2026in the Jesse H. and Mary Gibbs Jones Theater
BKLYN The Musical is a story within a story. On the outside, a troupe of street performers sets its stage at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge, preparing to share a story of their lives. Then through a gorgeous pop score, they tell the story of a young Parisian girl who comes to the U.S. to find the father she never knew. The story they create is a touching, inspiring fable, and a live theatre experience to remember.

Tracksby Peter Tarsi
APRIL 17-19, 24-26, 2026IN THE HEATHER MCGAUGHEY MEMORIAL HALL
A group of strangers meet in a dirty subway station. They have arrived with limited personal belongings, their watches have stopped and they all claim to be in different cities. Soon they learn there is no way out of the station, and the unfortunate truth is told to them: they are all dead. Since subway stations have two sides, they reason the train leaving from one platform must be bound for heaven, while the train leaving from the other platform must be bound for hell. But which platform are they on? They reflect upon their lives, recalling and confessing past deeds of which they are not proud, hoping to figure out which platform is which. The arrival of someone from the other platform only complicates matters, and the answer remains unclear. As the subway train finally approaches, they must decide whether to stay and ponder their actions further, or to have faith and climb aboard to their final destination.
