The Da Vinci Code / Genre
For Tickets & Info:

When The Da Vinci Code unfolds on stage, we meet symbologist Robert Langdon and cryptologist Sophie Neveu, thrust into a deadly murder at the heart of a famed art museum. As the clues begin piling up, they dive head-long into a dangerous race spanning Europe, following cryptic codes hidden in ancient symbols, art, and religious history. Secrets buried for centuries begin to surface, and every clue brings them closer to a truth that could shatter long-standing beliefs. The play balances tense investigation with intellectual puzzles and historical intrigue, offering a theatrical ride that is fast-paced, suspenseful, and thought-provoking. With shifting settings, cryptic puzzles, and a sense that everything familiar might be hiding something deeper, this adaptation wraps mystery, drama, and cerebral suspense into a sharply entertaining theatrical experience.

Frozen / Musical

Frozen is a Broadway musical created by Disney Theatrical Productions, adapted from the hit animated film, and shaped by the songwriting team of Kristen Anderson Lopez and Robert Lopez with a book by Jennifer Lee. The story follows two royal sisters whose lives shift when one discovers she has a powerful and unpredictable gift that she struggles to control. As the kingdom faces a sudden and mysterious transformation, the sisters are pushed apart, then drawn into a journey that tests their courage, loyalty, and the bond that has defined them since childhood. The musical blends fantasy, adventure, and heartfelt character drama, using soaring music and striking stagecraft to bring icy landscapes, enchanted moments, and emotional depth to life. At its core, it is a story about fear, identity, and the difficult work of trusting the people who matter most. While the world around them grows larger and more uncertain, the sisters learn that love can be both a shield and a challenge, and that becoming who they are meant to be often requires stepping into the unknown. The result is a visually rich and emotionally warm production that leaves audiences wanting more.

The Cottage / Play

The Cottage is a romantic comedy farce written by Sandy Rustin. Set in 1923 in the English countryside, it follows Sylvia and Beau as they slip away to a quiet cottage for their annual secret rendezvous. Sylvia, fed up with living in the shadows, decides to shake up their carefully protected affair by sending blunt telegrams to both her husband and Beau’s wife. Her bold move sets off a chain reaction that turns a simple escape into a whirlwind of surprise arrivals, shifting loyalties, and sharply funny confrontations. The story plays with the absurdity of love triangles, the fragility of polite society, and the ridiculous ways people try to protect their reputations. Quick dialogue, escalating misunderstandings, and delightful character clashes drive the humor while hinting at deeper questions about what people truly want from love. The Cottage sparkles with wit and charm, inviting the audience into a world where secrets refuse to stay hidden and nothing goes quite according to plan.
