  Rumors

  Directed by Joan Crooks
  Written by Neil Simon
  
  Several affluent couples gather at a posh dinner party celebrating their hosts’ tenth anniversary. However, they discover the hostess is missing, and the host - the deputy mayor of New York City - has shot himself through the earlobe! Comic complications arise when, given everyone’s upper class status, they decide they need to do everything possible to conceal the evening’s events from the local police and the media! Classic Neil Simon at his hysterical best! Due to language this show is recommended for mature audiences.

  In this hilarious Christmas tale, a couple struggling to put on a church Christmas pageant is faced with casting the Herdman kids, probably the most inventively awful kids in history. You won’t believe the mayhem (and the fun!) when the Herdmans collide with the Christmas story head on! This delightful comedy is adapted from the best selling book and is one of the most successful shows FtP has ever produced! Please note that this show is not part of our season subscription plan.

  To order tickets please call The Frederick Arts Council (301) 662-4190.

  The Women
  
  February 1, 2, 8, 9, and 10, 2013

  Written by Claire Boothe Luce
  Directed by Bill Rucker
  
  This brilliant play has assumed the status of a modern classic. Aside from the novelty of featuring a large cast of women (no male characters at all!) it is an immensely entertaining panorama of our world from the feminine viewpoint. The playwright shows us not only a somewhat unflattering picture of womanhood, but digging under the surface, reveals a human understanding for and sympathy with some of its outstanding figures. The plot involves the efforts of a group of women to play their respective roles in an artificial society that consists of vainity, comedy, tragedy, hope and disappointment
