Based on the cult hit film of the same name, The Full Monty, a ten-time Tony Award nominee, is filled with honest affection, engaging melodies and the most highly anticipated closing number of any show.
While spying on their wives at a “Girls’ Night Out,” a group of unemployed steelworkers from Buffalo sees how much they enjoy watching male strippers. Jealous, out of work and feeling emasculated, the men come up with a bold and unclothed way to make some quick cash. In preparing, they find themselves extremely exposed; not merely physically but emotionally. As they conquer their fears, self-consciousness and prejudices, the men come to discover that they’re stronger as a group, and the strength that they find in each other gives them the individual courage to “let it go.”
The Full Monty is a story full of heart. Right to the end, audiences will be wondering if these lovable misfits will really pull it off. With a raucous mix of razor-sharp humor and toe-tapping pizzazz, this heartwarming, upbeat comedy is a must see.

Sweeney Todd explores complex themes of revenge, justice, power, dehumanization, and societal corruption, set against the backdrop of Victorian London, and uses musical styles like melodrama, Grand Guignol, and ballad opera.
Sweeney Todd also touches upon elements of love, desperation, and the dark underbelly of society. The musical ultimately serves as a chilling commentary on human nature, justice, and the consequences of unchecked power and societal neglect.
