Gianni Schicchi by Giacomo Puccini

Lone Star Lyric

Gianni Schicchi by Giacomo Puccini

PLUS Prequels & Sequels to opera masterworks: "Mimi's Perfect Day" by Michael Remson; "Happy Endings" by Andrew Schneider

Greed with a dash of love is the simple story in Puccini's masterful comic one act opera, Gianni Schicchi. It's 1923, during the heart of Prohibition when bootleggers become mob bosses and everyone in "the family" wants their cut. Imagine what might have happened before and after Puccini’s La Bohème. Enjoy two delightfully silly accounts of
our favorite bohemians in Michael Remson's Mimì's Perfect Day and Andrew Schneider's Happy Endings.Read more

Cruel Intentions: The 90's Musical

Created by Jordan Ross and Lindsey Rosin

Based on the iconic film starring Reese Witherspoon, Ryan Phillippe and Sarah Michelle Geller, Cruel Intentions: The ’90s Musical pulls you into the manipulative world of Manhattan’s most dangerous liaisons: Sebastian Valmont and Kathryn Merteuil. Fueled by revenge and passion, the diabolically charming step-siblings place a bet on whether or not Sebastian can deflower their incoming headmaster’s daughter, Annette Hargrove. As the two set out to destroy the innocent girl— and anyone else who gets in their way — they find themselves playing a perilous game with only one rule: Never fall in love.

Featuring your favorite throwback hits by artists like Boyz II Men, Christina Aguilera, REM, 'NSYNC, and, of course, Britney Spears, this sexy, hilarious, and so-very-cruel musical is “the ultimate night out” (Entertainment Weekly).

Cruel Intentions: The '90s Musical is not intended for young audiences due to strong sexual situations, drug use, and language. The intended audience is ages 16+. Parental discretion is advised.Read more
