A Fantasia on the Life of Florence Foster Jenkins. For more than half a century the name Florence Foster Jenkins has been guaranteed to produce explosions of derisive laughter, as this wealthy society eccentric suffered under the delusion that she was a great coloratura soprano when she was in fact incapable of producing two consecutive notes in tune. Nevertheless, her annual recitals brought her extraordinary fame. By turn hilarious and poignant, Souvenir tells her story through the eyes of her accompanist, Cosme McMoon. As Florence's confidence soars and faced with her boundless certainty, Cosme comes to revise his attitude, not only toward her singing but to the very meaning of music itself. "Go laugh to your heart's content. There weren't many voices as bad as Jenkins'. There aren't many theatrical experiences as good as Souvenir." - Boston Globe. "A beguiling comic jewel with a heart." - Variety

Harold and Burt, longtime friends, live in a retirement home and spend their days on a bench in the garden bickering. A once famous actress has just moved in, giving them something new to argue over. When they learn that the home is about to be sold and they will have to find a new residence, the three join forces to prevent this upsetting development. “Very wise, very moving, but most of all, very funny.” – Mel Brooks

Called "the funniest farce ever written," Noises Off presents a manic menagerie of itinerant actors rehearsing a flop called "Nothing's On." Doors slamming, on and offstage intrigue and, an errant herring, all figure in the plot of this hilarious and classically comic play. "As Side-splitting a farce as I have seen. Ever? Ever." - New York Magazine
By Michael Carlton, James Fitzgerald and John K. Alvarez. Presented by Henrico Theatre Company!

With music by Alan Menken and lyrics and book by Howard Ashman. Presented by Henrico Theatre Company! Seymour Krelborn, a meek floral assistant, stumbles across a new breed of plant he names “Audrey II” – after his coworker crush. This R&B singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down and out Krelborn as long as he keeps feeding it blood. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II’s out of this world origins and intent towards global domination! The music in the style of early 1960s rock and roll, doo-wop and early Motown includes several well-known tunes, including the title song, Skid Row, Somewhere That’s Green and Suddenly, Seymour.
By John Van Druten. Presented by Henrico Theatre Company! Gillian Holroyd is one of the few modern people who can actually cast spells and perform feats of supernaturalism. She casts a spell over an unattached publisher, Shepherd Henderson, partly to keep him away from a rival and partly because she is attracted to him. He falls head over heels in love with her at once and wants to marry her. But witches, unfortunately, cannot fall in love, and this minute imperfection leads to a number of difficulties. A wonderfully enchanting fantasy!
