2011 Youth Play

Play Synopsis: The story of Heidi, the little orphan girl who brings new hope to everyone her life touches, glows even more endearingly today than it has for generations.

At the opening of the play we find Heidi, orphaned and left in the care of her grumpy old grandfather who lives isolated in the Swiss mountains. It doesn't take long before the sweet little child has melted grandpa's hardened heart. Suddenly, cruel Aunt Dete arrives bringing with her the unpleasantness of the outside world. She whisks Heidi off to Frankfort and sells her into servitude in the home of the wealthy Segemann and into the clutches of the wicked housekeeper, Miss Rottenmeier. Making the best of the situation, Heidi befriends Clara, Segemann's invalid daughter, encouraging the girl to walk unassisted for the first time in years. Heidi's poignant renunion with her grandfather concludes the story. Everywhere she goes, Heidi brings joy to the people around her, proving the power of love can restore hope for the future and a better life.

2011 Family Musical

Play synopsis: The final collaboration between Rodgers and Hammerstein was destined to become the world's most beloved musical!

When lively Maria, a postulant at an Austrian convent, proves too high-spirited for the religious life, she is dispatched to serve as governess for the seven children of the stern widowed naval officer Georg von Trapp. Maria wins the children's love immediately and inadvertantly falls for the Captain. Her growing rapport with the youngsters, coupled with her generosity of spirit, gradually captures the heart of the Captain, and they marry. Upon returning from their honeymoon they discover that Austria has been invaded by the Nazis, who demand the Captain's immediate service in their navy. The family's narrow escape over the mountains to Switzerland on the eve of World War II provides of the most thrilling and inspirational finales ever presented in theatre!
