This summer we are launching a new mini season at The Studio: The Mini Summer Vacation Season. From now on every summer our patrons can look forward to a summer of lighthearted entertainment here at The Studio. We have historically spent much of our time focused on presenting works that hold relevance to our community and current events, as that is our mission. Now, in the summer we are letting our hair down. We want to spend our summers with our studio patrons, but we are taking a little vacation from our mission to blow off some steam and enjoy a few belly laughs. Our summer shows will be of the high quality that our patrons have come to expect of The Studio team, just with more laughs. We are looking forward to giggles and gut-busters with all of you. So, come on over and enjoy some of your summer vacation with our Mini Summer Vacation Season.

Unnecessary Farce
A fast-paced, door-slamming, handcuff-wearing, bagpipe-playing comedy!
Two cops. Three crooks. Eight doors. Go. In a cheap motel room, an embezzling mayor is supposed to meet with his female accountant, while in the room next-door, two undercover cops wait to catch the meeting on videotape. But who's in which room? Who's being videotaped? Who's taken the money? Who’s hired a Scottish Highland hit man, and why does the accountant keep taking off her clothes? Join us at The Studio this summer for the hilarious comedy Unnecessary Farce.

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
A quirky musical comedy about competition & coming of age.

Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion! At least the losers get a juice box and a hug from the comfort counselor.

In this quirky musical comedy, an eclectic group of pre-teens compete for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the contestants spell their way through hopes, dreams, and angst.

This Tony Award winning musical has charmed audiences across the country with its effortless wit and humor. A riotous ride, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee is a delightful den of comedic genius.

Featuring a fast-paced, wildly funny and touching book by Rachel Sheinkin and a truly fresh and vibrant score by William Finn, this bee is one unforgettable experience.
