2016-17 Season

Noises Off

Noises Off by Michael Frayn – Directed by Donna Trammell & Buster Maloney

A brilliantly funny farce about a troupe of actors who take a badly written farce on tour. Eccentric personalities and tense relationships contribute to increasingly frenzied performances –both onstage and off. The audience is privileged to experience both as the set changes from “on-stage” to “back-stage” and back again. Adult language.

The Crucible

The Crucible by Arthur Miller Directed by Bryan Thomas Patrick

Rumors of witchcraft spread through a Puritan New England town when young girls are seemingly stricken with a mysterious illness. Long simmering disputes, grudges and jealousies turn into harsh accusations and soon the entire community is embroiled in prolonged legal proceedings filled with dramatic claims and desperate confessions.

The Christmas Express

The Christmas Express – by Pat Cook

This nostalgic theatrical greeting card is full of eccentric small town characters, wise-cracking their way to finding the true wonder of Christmas. A delight for audiences ages 6 to 106!

Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?

Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf by Edward Albee – Directed by Melanie Barth

George and Martha, a middle-aged couple, are adept at playing scathing emotional games with one another. One late evening they have company – Nick, a young professor who has joined the faculty where George teaches, and his wife, Honey. Fueled by alcohol while attempting to fathom constantly shifting verbal tirades, they become enmeshed in the cruel games played by their hosts. Adult themes and mild language.

Oliver

Oliver! Music and lyrics by Lionel Bart and based on the novel Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens. Directed by Pat Watson

Delightful musical about the adventures of a young orphan boy in Victorian London. He falls in with pick-pockets and thieves as he searches for a home and a family to love. Favorite numbers from this show include “Food, Glorious Food”, “Consider Yourself”, and “Where is Love.”

Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike

Vanya & Sonia & Masha & Spike by Christopher Durang – Directed by Brad Speck

Tony award-winning comedy revolves around three middle-aged single siblings. Two of them live together in their childhood home and are supported by the third– who upsets their world with a visit and the announcement that she intends to sell the house. Critics praised the work as a humorous adaptation of Chekhov themes that doesn’t require familiarity with Chekhov. Adult themes.

Encore 10 – Curtains

Encore 10 – Curtains – Book by Rupert Holmes, Lyrics by Fred Ebb, and Music by John Kander, with additional lyrics by Kander and Holmes.

This musical mystery comedy is a hilarious send-up of backstage murder mysteries. Set in 1959 in Boston, a rather untalented star is murdered and it is up to detective and musical theatre fan, Lt. Frank Cioffi to solve the case and save the show.

Bonnie and Clyde

Bonnie and Clyde music by Frank Wildhorn, lyrics by Don Black and a book by Ivan Menchell. Directed by Daniel Bryant-Gawne

When Bonnie and Clyde meet, their mutual cravings for excitement and fame immediately set them on a mission to chase their dreams. This thrilling and sexy musical with a non-traditional score, combining blues, gospel and rockabilly music. Adult language and themes.

     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We've seen several slows at this theater and have always enjoyed them.  The acting has always been good and the sets and costumes are well done. The theater itself is well designed so you won't get a bad seat. I do recommend arriving early as it is tricky to find parking.

     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I saw Charlie & The Chocolate Factory (CATCF) at Theater Denton on Sunday.  What a fun way to spend a couple of hours on a hot summer day.  Cool theater off the square.  Much of it in its original glory.  The over all production was fantastic.  The singing, acting and the MUSIC 🎵, all exceeded my expectations.  The music was exceptional. Such talented artists.  A friend of mine played violin in the performance.  She played beautifully.  I was actually moved to tears during the show as I was transported back to fond memories of my youth, and to my  childhood memories of CATCF.

Our seats were perfect for viewing characters across the stage.  I didn’t see a bad seat (obstructed) in the house.

Parking - Denton can be tricky, especially The Square, and weekends.  Come early so you’re not stressing over finding a spot (like I did).

They sell snacks and beverages (alcoholic & nonalcoholic) at the concession store. They take cash and credit cards.

There’s a cute little WONKA CANDY SHOP spot for photo ops inside the lounge.  Candy props and all!

Final thought-
I expected the theater to be freezing inside.  It wasn’t.  It was cool enough inside to make me forget about the extreme heat outside. ☺️

This was my first time attending a show at Theater Denton.  I’m  looking forward to the upcoming shows I’ll see next.

Wonderful community production with an extremely talented cast!  We also loved the historical theater and the vintage vibe. Free parking was easier to find than we expected!

     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We love seeing shows at Campus as well as at the Annex at the mall. I would recommend y'all set up a separate Google listing for your mall location with location details for out of towners. Specifically letting them know about the back door entrance & parking. It will go a long way in getting the word out about entertainment options on that side of town if it pops up in google & map searches!
