“Hysterically funny!” -The New York Post

Oct. 14 - Nov. 8, 2015 Book and Lyrics by Joe DiPietro (I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change) Music and Lyrics by David Bryan (Founding member of Bon Jovi) Based on Lloyd Kaufman’s film The Toxic Avenger

Based on the classic cult film of the same name, this new rock-pop musical is a charming, exhilarating and hysterical love story that has it all - an unlikely hero, his beautiful girlfriend, a corrupt New Jersey Mayor, and two guys who play EVERY other character in the play; including bullies, monsters, old ladies and stiletto-wearing back up singers. “Toxie” is an unconventional contemporary love story with an environmental twist that will rock the house and leave audiences laughing out loud.

“A delightful new holiday tradition.” -Talkin’ Broadway

Dec. 2 - 27, 2015 By Mark Brown

It’s now one year since his miraculous transformation, and good old Scrooge is back to his old ways, or so it seems. Ebenezer is now suing Marley and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future for breaking and entering, kidnapping, slander, pain and suffering, attempted murder, and intentional infliction of emotional stress. It’s the “Trial of the Century” with hysterical courtroom antics. With this all-new, very smart and clever script, worthy of the Dickens original, playwright Mark Brown has created an entertaining, funny and uplifting new tradition for the holiday season.

“The greatest musical of all time” -The New York Times

Jan. 27 - Feb. 21, 2016 Book by Arthur Laurents, Music by Leonard Bernstein Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim Based on a Conception of Jerome Robbins Based on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet

West Side Story returns to Actors’ Playhouse almost 20 years since it won our Regional Theatre’s Carbonell Award for “Best Production of a Musical,” this time in an all-new exciting 21st Century Production. West Side Story is considered by many to be one of the greatest creations in American Musical Theatre history. The Jets and the Sharks are back, along with the incomparable Bernstein score, Romeo and Juliet style romance, and the infamous Jerome Robbins’ based choreography. West Side Story will explode onto the Miracle Theatre’s Stage as our featured large-scale musical of the season, with classic reverence and contemporary heat.

“The Master’s words in his own voice”

March 16 - April 3, 2016 Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim Conceived by James Lapine

The first ever South Florida production of the newest catalogue of the master’s career since it’s Broadway premiere, this amazing new piece of musical theatre is Stephen Sondheim’s final say on his unparalleled body of work. SONDHEIM ON SONDHEIM is a stunning yet intimate portrait of the famed songwriter in his own words. This exquisite new theatre piece features new arrangements of over two dozen Sondheim songs, ranging from the beloved to the obscure, interspersed with mass media, including filmed commentary by the composer himself, as he reveals fascinating details about his life and art. Sung by a cast of our most gifted vocalists and a small chamber orchestra, this brand new production will be a fitting tribute to one of the finest, if not THE finest composer to ever write for the Broadway stage.

“Full of laughter and light even at the darkest moments” -The Gazette

May 18 - June 12, 2016 By Sean Grennan

From the author of Making God Laugh, which our audiences fell in love with two seasons ago, comes Sean Grennan’s newest comedy, this one with inspirational dramatic resonance. The Tin Woman is a rich, funny and moving theatrical experience involving a postoperative heart transplant recipient struggling with her own survival guilt, who decides to meet the family of the late donor. The grief of the donor’s family coupled with the recipient’s own questions, fears and doubts evolve into a very real, very funny and touching new play, that leaves the audience with an unexpected and heartwarming resolution.

“Irresistible, delicious and wickedly funny!” -The New York Times

July 13 - Aug. 7, 2016 By Jonathan Tolins

Winner of the 2013 Drama Desk Award, this fantastically funny one-man tour-de-force was the most talked about new comedy of last year’s OffBroadway Season. Buyer & Cellar is an outrageous new comedy about the oddest of odd jobs: an underemployed Los Angeles actor goes to work in Barbra Streisand’s Malibu basement. What follows is a riotously funny new play that gets every comedic element right and ultimately questions the price of fame. One actor will amaze audiences playing a handful of roles including himself, his boyfriend, Streisand’s Manager, James Brolin and ultimately Barbra herself.
