Deathtrap

by Ira Levin
directed by Alex Iben

March 4-7, 11-14, 2010
Friday and Saturday at 7:30 pm, Sunday at 2 pm
Iowa Children's Museum
Coral Ridge Mall, Coralville


One of the five longest-running non-musicals in Broadway history, Deathtrap is both the epitome of a classic thriller and a playful insider’s poke at the genre. Perhaps the opening lines of the show describe it best: “A thriller in two acts. One set. Five characters. A juicy murder in Act One, unexpected developments in Act Two. Sound construction, good dialogue, laughs in the right places. Highly commercial.”

Circle StarThreepenny Opera
by Bertolt Brecht
music by Kurt Weill
directed by Miriam Gilbert and Ed Kottick


April 23-25, 30, May 1-2
Friday and Saturday at 7:30 pm, Sunday at 2 pm
Iowa Children's Museum
Coral Ridge Mall, Coralville

Adapted from John Gay's The Beggar's Opera, The Threepenny Opera serves up a deliciously dark satire of “respectable” society with dashing thieves, saucy prostitutes, and a score deeply influenced by jazz. Inspiring such subsequent hits as Cabaret, Chicago, and Urinetown, The Threepenny Opera thrusts the audience into the seedy underworld of Mack the Knife, a dapper criminal and his wry love affair with Polly Peachum.
