Sister Amnesia's Country Western NUNSENSE Jamboree!

A musical by Dan Goggin

June 4 – July 2, 2005

The Sisters from Nunsense are at it again and this time they've gone Honky-Tonk! Sister Amnesia fancies herself a country western singer in the style of Patsy Cline. Join her and the others as they try to boost here career with a pilgrimage to the Holy Land of Country Music: Nashville!

 

The Underpants
 by Steve Martin.

July 9 – August 6, 2005

Comedy comes screaming off the stage in this hysterical farce by one of America’s silliest comedians, Steve Martin. Adapted from a German comedy by Carl Sternheim, Steve Martin takes us on a laugh filled ride when the wife of a prominent member of the town suddenly looses her underwear at the local parade in honor of the King. Society, morality and propriety all are comedic targets in this funny bone busting comedy. Recommend for Mature Audiences.

 

God's Man In Texas
 by David Rambo

August 13 – September 3, 2005

Faith and egos collide in the age of mass-market religion at Houston's Rock Baptist Church otherwise known as The Baptist Super Bowl. In an entertaining and rousing evening of theatre we witness the changing of the guard between old and new as a retiring pastor of the flock prepares to usher in a new leader for his empire only to discover there is more than enough spirit in all of their spirituality. The play is both hilariously comic and deeply moving.

 

The Killer Angels
Adapted from Michael Shaara's book by Karen Tarjan

September 10 – October 8, 2005 

Adapted from the award winning book of the same name that led to the movie Gettysburg, Ms. Tarjan's wonderful play takes you right inside the thrilling story of the three days that changed America's history during the Civil War. History so alive you can reach out and touch it.

 

Sleuth
 by Anthony Shaffer

October 15 – November 12, 2005 

A classic mystery and suspense tale unfolds when a man of the theatre who loves game playing invites his wife's lover to meet him. Think of the perfect crime and then go one step further and you're in for a thrilling, edge of your seat treat.
   Jean Shepherd’s
 “A Christmas Story”
a Comedy adapted by Philip Grecian

November 26 – Dec 24, 2005

"A Christmas Story," adapted by Philip Grecian, fondly remembered as the motion picture by Jean Shepherd, Leigh Brown and Bob Clark, is one young boy's quest to get the Christmas present of his dreams, a Red Ryder BB gun. In his campaign, Ralphie must triumph over parents, his teacher, the neighborhood bully, and even Santa. Armed with good friends, a solid plan, and hope, Ralphie sets out to have the best Christmas ever. Narrated by an older and wiser Ralphie, this play will keep everyone, young and old, chuckling in their seats.

  Smoke on the Mountain
by Connie Ray, Alan Bailey, Mike Craver and Mark Hardwick

January 28 - March 25, 2006

One of the most widely produced shows in theatrical history comes to Wayside Theatre. It's 1938 and its revival time at the Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church and the Sanders Family has been invited to entertain. The comedy is hilarious and the music raises the roof in this hilarious and heartwarming hoedown.
  The Diaries of Adam and Eve-
Searching for Eden
 by James Still

April 1 - 30, 2006

A wonderful and imaginative retelling of Mark Twain's classic story of the first couple and their life in Eden before and after the fall. The second half flashes forward to the present as the couple tries to recapture the life in Eden in a hilarious battle of the sexes. If you've ever been in love you'll love this play.

Make Your Mark at Wayside

When you visit the Curtain Call at intermission or after the play, be sure to take notice of the beautiful renovated antique theatre chair on display.   Or, as you sit down to enjoy the play, you may notice the seat in front of you marked with a brass plaque proclaiming the seat as a "Gift of..." or "In Honor of..." a certain person.  These "Endowed Chairs" are the restored 1927 theatre seats, stripped of decades of paint and now gleaming with natural wood, plush velvet and gilt, made possible by the donations of those individuals so named on the back of each seat. 

If you wish to endow a chair, a donation of $250 will make you a "permanent fixture" at Wayside Theatre.
