SEASON 08/09 Main Stage Plays

Cannibal! The Musical

Written by Trey Parker

Directed by George Faughnan

September 19 – October 18, 2008 (Thurs, Fri, Sat @ 8pm)

Written by Trey Parker (co-creator of South Park) and originally made for film, Dad's Garage performed the World Premiere of the stage play in 1998. The 10th Anniversary restaging of this campy comedy is sure to knock your socks off and nibble off your frozen little toes. Based on a true story about the infamous Colorado cannibal Alferd Packer, you’ll follow a group of prospectors into a viciously cold Rocky Mountain winter, for a horrific–ly hilarious account of survival including love, loss, singing, dancing, and of course… a little flesh-eating.

Invasion: Christmas Carol

Concept by The Dad's Garage Improv Ensemble

Directed by Dan Triandiflou

November 28 – December 23, 2008 (Thurs, Fri, Sat @ 8pm)

In true Dad's Garage tradition, here comes another alternative holiday production that you can't see anywhere else! This year, the award-winning Dad's Garage Ensemble will be skewering the quintessential Christmas play – A Christmas Carol. You'll see familiar characters acting in ways that might not be so familiar as our improvisers create a whole new holiday experience before your very eyes. Visited by different ghosts every evening (that are a complete surprise to the cast), you'll see Scrooge's past, present, and future unfold in a new way each night. In the vein of 2007's Invasion: Our Town, this show will have you laughing so hard that it washes all of the “Bah Humbugs” away.

Pay What You Can Performance – December 15 @ 8pm

Sunday, Monday, & Tuesday performances – December 21 – 23 @ 8pm

The B-Team

Written by David Holstein

Directed by Kate Warner

March 13 – April 4, 2009 (Thurs, Fri, Sat @ 8pm)

Certainly the action of terrorism isn’t any laughing matter, but the inaction of terrorism is down right hysterical! Aptly named the B-Team, this rag-tag group of self-proclaimed “freedom fighters” are a ridiculous mess. Will their big mission to destroy Niagara Falls succeed? Or will it be botched by petty arguments, love affairs, and general idiocy? Filled with side-splitting hijinks, explosions, Nintendo cheat codes, and 72 dancing virgins – this regional premiere of The B-Team will inspire you to be all you can B.
