SUMMARY:All's Well in Roswell (Isn't it?)
DESCRIPTION:All’s Well in Roswell (Isn’t it?)\nBy Michael Druce\nDirected by Chris Holcom \nAfter an unidentified flying object crashes onto a ranch near Roswell\, New Mexico\, in 1947\, ranch owner Ulysses T. Boone has his hands full trying to deal with the press\, government authorities\, his own family\, and Jake\, a mysterious ranch hand who has been living on the ranch for the past 10 years. \nIt turns out this is not the first time T. Boone has had a close encounter. In fact\, Jake is a space alien waiting for a ride home. Aided by a nosy science fiction writer\, agents from Area 51 are about to discover T. Boone’s secret. With only minutes to spare\, everything hinges on a third-rate film company making a cheesy science fiction film to create a diversion. \nAll’s Well in Roswell (Isn’t it?) is a staged reading. \nProduced by special arrangement with THE DRAMATIC PUBLISHING COMPANY\, INC\, of Woodstock\, Illinois. \nSponsor this Show \n\nAdmission: Free for members / Suggested donation of $5 for general public \n\n\nSave with a Season Package!\nEach package includes one ticket for All’s Well in Roswell (Isn’t It?)\, Amityville ‘74\, Jesus Christ Superstar\, 20\,000 Leagues Under the Seas\, M*A*S*H\, Schoolhouse Rock Live!\, R.U.R.

SUMMARY:Tampa Metropolitan Improv
DESCRIPTION:The minds that brought you Tales of Mild Interest (or TMI for short) are returning to their improv roots\, with the newly formed Tampa Metropolitan Improv (or TMI for short)!\nCome for a riotously good time\, and perhaps even play along with us\, as we perform short-form improv games using suggestions from you\, the audience (think along the lines of Whose Line is it Anyway\, or Dropout TV’s Make Some Noise). No two TMI shows are alike\, but rest assured\, we bring a saucy\, edgy\, extremely cool\, and hip PG-13 rating to the function that most of the family can enjoy! \nYou’ll laugh! You’ll cry! (Hopefully\, the crying is from the laughter.) But who knows…it’s improv\, baby! \n\nAdmission: Free for members / $5 general admission \n\nThis is a ticketed event. Some processing fees may apply\, even for free tickets. Visit the Box Office or call (813) 922-8167 to avoid processing fees.

SUMMARY:War of the Worlds
DESCRIPTION:Join us as campers ages 14-16 enrolled in our 4-week Youth Arts Intensive program perform The War of the Worlds.\nThe War of the Worlds radio broadcast\, directed by Orson Welles on October 30\, 1938\, was a dramatization of H.G. Wells’ novel. It was presented as a series of fake news bulletins simulating a Martian invasion of Earth targeting New Jersey. The realistic sound effects and presentation style led some listeners to believe it was an actual event and caused widespread panic despite announcements that it was a fictional play. The event remains one of the most famous examples of mass hysteria triggered by a radio broadcast. \nADMISSION: Admission to this performance is free\, and tickets are not required. Enjoy! \nSHOW CREDITS: War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells | Originally performed by The Mercury Theatre directed and narrated by Orson Welles

SUMMARY:Tampa Metropolitan Improv
DESCRIPTION:The minds that brought you Tales of Mild Interest (or TMI for short) are returning to their improv roots\, with the newly formed Tampa Metropolitan Improv (or TMI for short)!\nCome for a riotously good time\, and perhaps even play along with us\, as we perform short-form improv games using suggestions from you\, the audience (think along the lines of Whose Line is it Anyway\, or Dropout TV’s Make Some Noise). No two TMI shows are alike\, but rest assured\, we bring a saucy\, edgy\, extremely cool\, and hip PG-13 rating to the function that most of the family can enjoy! \nYou’ll laugh! You’ll cry! (Hopefully\, the crying is from the laughter.) But who knows…it’s improv\, baby! \n\nAdmission: Free for members / $5 general admission \n\nThis is a ticketed event. Some processing fees may apply\, even for free tickets. Visit the Box Office or call (813) 922-8167 to avoid processing fees.

SUMMARY:Steel Magnolias
DESCRIPTION:Steel Magnolias\nBy Robert Harling \nDirected by David J. Valdez \nThe action is set in Truvy’s beauty salon in Chinquapin\, Louisiana\, where all the ladies who are “anybody” come to have their hair done. Helped by her eager new assistant\, Annelle (who is not sure whether or not she is still married)\, the outspoken\, wise-cracking Truvy dispenses shampoos and free advice to the town’s rich curmudgeon\, Ouiser (“I’m not crazy\, I’ve just been in a bad mood for forty years”); an eccentric millionaire\, Miss Clairee\, who has a raging sweet tooth; and the local social leader\, M’Lynn\, whose daughter\, Shelby (the prettiest girl in town)\, is about to marry a “good ole boy.” Filled with hilarious repartee and not a few acerbic but humorously revealing verbal collisions\, the play moves toward tragedy when\, in the second act\, the spunky Shelby (who is a diabetic) risks pregnancy and forfeits her life. The sudden realization of their mortality affects the others but also draws on the underlying strength—and love—which give the play and its characters the special quality to make them truly touching\, funny\, and marvelously amiable company in good times and bad. \nPresented through Dramatists Play Service. \nBe part of the 2024-25 Theatrical Season: Audition / Sponsor this Production \n\nAdmission\nThis event has reserved seating. \nMembers: $30 / General Admission: $34 \n\n**Online processing fees apply. \n\n
