Pec Playhouse Theatre Announces 2008 Season
by Press Release
Pec Playhouse Theatre is pleased to announce their 2008 Season!  Season tickets are now available, and individual tickets are priced at only $10.  
Love, Sex and the IRS - February 8 - 24th.  Our hilarious season opener is a sitcom-style comedy about deception, mistaken identities, and, well, sex.  (But it’s not what you think!)   Jon and Leslie are two out-of-work musicians living in New York City.  Jon realizes he can save a lot of money on taxes by claiming he and Leslie are married, and it seems to be the perfect scam.  Until they get audited, that is.  Leslie masquerades as a woman to fool Mr. Spinner, the IRS agent, and then to make matters worse, Jon’s fiancé shows up, as well as Jon’s mother and Leslie’s ex.  Oh, and a suspicious, misogynistic landlord doesn’t help matters much.  This comedy will be the perfect mid-winter blues-buster!
 
The Uninvited  -  April 18-27th
Our annual high school show!  Area students guest-star on our stage; this year, there may also be a few uninvited guests! Set in a remote corner of England, this haunting play follows the terrifying events that occur when a brother and sister take up residence in a house with a murderous past.  Don’t be afraid to join us for this thrilling tale of ghosts, where dark secrets are revealed and puzzles solved.    
Godspell  - July 11-27th 
We are excited to bring this well-known favorite to our stage for our summer show!  A modern-day version of the Gospel according to Matthew, Godspell tells the story of a disparate group of New Yorkers who become a traveling acting troupe to spread the message of Jesus with parables and performance.  Hear familiar musical favorites like Day by Day and Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord, and enjoy Godspell’s  timeless message - finding faith amid the shallow, chaotic, modern world.
Cheaper by the Dozen  - September 19-Oct 5th
Be sure to bring the kids for this show!  Dad is an efficiency expert (which is probably useful in a household with twelve kids) who runs his home like a factory.  But the eldest daughter wants to date boys, the younger daughters follow suit, the boys want a dog, and all the kids think dad needs to lighten up.  This family-friendly comedy is full of love and laughter, and you’ll be chuckling with empathy as things spiral out of control, as they’re likely to do in any large family.  The perfect back-to-school entertainment!
A Christmas Carol - November 21-Dec 7
The Charles Dickens classic comes to our stage for the holidays!  Scrooge, an old and bitter miser, has dedicated his life to the accumulation of wealth at any cost.  But with the help of spirits and visions from his past, present, and future, this lonely man finds redemption; a second chance to become a loving, generous, human being – and all in one night!  This treasured classic will make the perfect addition to your family’s holiday celebration.
