	AN EVENING WITH MARK TWAIN New York actor Michael Mauldin, as Mark Twain in his customary white suit and ever-present cigar, takes us through a fascinating panoply of uproarious comedy, gentle reminiscence, and biting social satire on the human condition–which is amazingly relevant to today's world. Mr. Mauldin delivers a powerfully humorous and unforgettable performance–a richly rewarding experience for the Twain aficionado and novice alike.			THE QUEEN OF BINGO Audiences young and old will howl with laughter as two zany GUYS, playing two crazy GALS, light up the stage in the hit Off-Broadway comedy about Bingo, family bonds, widowhood, diet crazes, winning and losing and sibling rivalry. AND, one lucky audience member gets to take home a 10lb frozen turkey after winning the ÒMiddle Bird SpecialÓ - a bingo game called by Father Mac and played by the entire audience just before intermissio. A guaranteed great night out for bingo lovers everywhere!
	CAPITOL STEPS The Capitol Steps are a troupe of Congressional staffers-turned-comedians who travel the States satirizing the very people and places that once employed them. People love to laugh at the foibles of public figures like President George W. Bush (ÓDonÕt Go Faking YouÕre SmartÓ), Vice President Dick Cheney (ÓThe Angina MonologuesÓ) or even Bill ClintonÕs new office (ÓIn the GhettoÓ).			THE GREAT KAPLAN Illusion, music, juggling and deadpan comedy collide in this vaudevillesque spectacle. Inspired by the antics of Keaton, Sellers, Victor Borge, the Smothers Brothers and the illustrious Wile E. Coyote, among others, ÒThe GreatÓ David Kaplan welcomes spectators, young and old alike, into his wonderfully strange world which seemingly crumbles as he manages to tame a rogue bowling ball, juggle furniture, perform feats of prestidigitation and play melodies on ÒConcert Balloon,Ó turkey baster, and his great grandfatherÕs ÒconcertÓ ukuleleÑall to the delight of a charmed and hysterical audience. He won the coveted ÒPeoples ChoiceÓ award at the 2006 International Brotherhood of Magicians Conference. A guaranteed Laugh-A-Minute experience!

THE COPPELIA PROJECT HE COPPELIA PROJECT: A CLOWN BALLET is very engaging piece of physical theatre that is part dance, part mime and 100 % comedy. Dr. Coppelius speaks with his violin when he needs to communicate. He is also a perfectionist who dreams of making 'the perfect ballerina'. But each of his beautiful clown ballerinas turns out to be 'not quite right.' All the while, a young Delivery Boy is constantly under foot interfering with the good doctor's work. Eventually the eccentric Dr. learns a much needed lesson about the pursuit of perfection. The play touches on issues of inclusion and accessibility and its style has a beautiful balance of slapstick and bittersweet comedy.
