It is with great excitement that we announce to you a live performance of our spring musical production "Working". This musical commemorates the journeys of essential workers from finding jobs, losing jobs, working from home, traveling, and leaving their mark on the world! We hope you will consider joining us for our first live musical since 2019!

Based on Studs Terkel's best-selling book of interviews with American workers, "Working" paints a vivid portrait of the men and women that the world so often takes for granted: the schoolteacher, the phone operator, the waitress, the millworker, the mason and the housewife, just to name a few. Nominated for six Tony Awards, this classic has been updated for a modern age, featuring new songs by Tony Award-winning Lin-Manuel Miranda, as well as favorites by Stephen Schwartz, Craig Carnelia and James Taylor.

* Note: This show is rated PG, and contains a few minimal swear words throughout the interview scenes.

The show will be presented to a limited in-person audience of 250.

Tickets are free and donations will be welcomed at the door. We want everyone to know how grateful we are for support during this challenging time, and we're hopeful to continue bringing high quality productions to you in the future!

No admittance at the door without reservations through this online format!
