Upcoming

Current Production – “Lucky Stiff” A musical with book and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, music by Stephen Flaherty, directed by Criss Pearson. Based on the novel, The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo by Michael Butterworth, Lucky Stiff is an offbeat, hilarious murder mystery farce, complete with mistaken identities, six million bucks in diamonds and a corpse in a wheelchair. The story revolves around an unassuming English shoe salesman who is forced to take the embalmed body of his recently murdered uncle on a vacation to Monte Carlo. Should he succeed in passing his uncle off as alive, Harry Witherspoon stands to inherit $6,000,000. If not, the money goes to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn… or else his uncle’s gun-toting ex!

Auditions set for TCP’S Production of “The Uninvited“

Tahlequah Community Playhouse, Inc.  will hold auditions for the second play of the 51st season, Monday and Tuesday, September 16 and 17, 2024, 7 p.m. at St. Basil Episcopal church, 814 North Vinita Avenue, Tahlequah, Oklahoma. 

“The Uninvited” is the stage adaptation of the classic mystery and ghost story.  Mike Phillips will direct the play.  There are 10 roles, 6 women and 4 men (including 2 ghosts!). Show dates are November 15-17 and 22-24, 2024.  All performances are held at the Tahlequah Armory Municipal Center, 100 North Water Avenue, Tahlequah, Oklahoma. The play centers around Pam Fitzgerald and her aspiring playwright brother, Roddy, who seek to escape the demands of life in London.  They move into a charming house in the west of England overlooking the Irish Sea called Cliff End. The  house has long been empty and the reason soon becomes apparent. Slowly the Fitzgeralds begin to sense the evil spirit that still inhabits the house.  The housekeeper’s cat will not enter the nursery where the sound of a weeping woman adds to the tense atmosphere. Near the end of the play, Cliff End is forced to reveal its dark secrets.  The action builds steadily to a truly terrifying climax, in which the ghost is discovered to be not only real but dangerous.

TCP meets the last Tuesday of the month. 6 p.m., at St. Basil Episcopal church, 814 North Vinita Ave. Tickets are still available for the current play, the musical, “Lucky Stiff”. Call the box office for more information. 539-234-9444. Follow us on Face book.
