In the recent years, we have performed The Three Musketeers, The Laramie Project, Sophocles’ Oeidpus and Antigone, Hamlet, The Arabian Nights, Aristophane’s The Birds, Much Ado About Nothing, Cyrano De Bergerac, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Twelfth Night, The Crucible, Neil Simon’s Rumors and Light up the Sky. |
