The Frog Princess 5/28 - 6/27 at Chautauqua Park & 6/9 at Four Mile Historic Park

Dating in present times can make you turn green, and the term "dating pool" is just a metaphor, isn't it? Not when your future spouse is an actual frog who lives in a pond. Most people would be hopping mad at the prospect of marrying an amphibian, but our prince is jumping at the chance to get to know his groovy green gal. Too bad the same can't be said for his family. Join us on the trail for one of the most ribbit-ing tales ever toad.



The Three Little Pigs VS the Apocalypse 7/9-8/7 at Chautauqua Park & 7/28 at Four Mile Historic Park

It's the year 2520 and things are a little crazy. The apocalypse is now and the world has changed a lot! Scientists have tried to fuse human DNA with the DNA of animals. Three siblings have escaped the lab, enhanced with the DNA of a pig (go ahead and laugh, you know you want to.) These super pig-people rebels are on an epic search for a new home. Preferably one with less lab coats. Rumor has it there is one safe haven left, located somewhere in the Rocky Mountains. Can the siblings make it to safety before the Big Bad Wolf, the most fearsome bounty hunter alive, catches them? You'll find out in this fun, crazy, adventurous retelling of a family classic.
