Plays – 2008 Season
Performances Nightly Tuesday through Saturday 
Leading Ladies
by Ken Ludwig
June 6 – June 21
Jack and Leo, two down-on-their-luck actors impersonate long-lost nieces (yikes! nieces!) of a dying wealthy woman. The old lady's health improves, people are growing suspicious, and Jack finds himself falling in love with his "cousin" Meg. A high-octane Charley's Aunt, by Broadway's leading comedy master. Rated PG.
Mornings at Seven
by Paul Osborn
June 24 – July 5
This funny, heart-warming portrait of small-town American life--recently revived to great acclaim on Broadway--centers on the quirky Gibb family, who've lived next door to each other for most of their lives. When sisters Cora and Arry have designs on the same husband, and when the son brings his girlfriend home to meet the folks, things are about to just maybe ... change? Featuring Johnny Crawford (from The Rifleman). Comedy/drama. Rated G.
Johnny Crawford's Vintage Dance Band
June 29
Johnny Crawford, one of the original Mouseketeers and star of The Rifleman, presents a very special evening of elegant music and dancing, recapturing a by-gone era between two world wars when everyone danced, radio ruled, and great dance bands filled the airwaves every night with intoxicating music, fed to the nation from a grand network of famous ballrooms and nightclubs. Tickets available at Pioneer Playhouse box office. Visit Johnnycrawford.com to sample and purchase his recordings. One Night Only!
