From farce to familiar.

Twas the Night Before Christmas

Written by Ken Ludwig
Directed by Tony Lawry
From Grandma's basement to our stage. Theatre Above the Law presents the nostalgic holiday stories of mice, elves, a spunky little girl and of course Santa. Reminiscent of the holiday pageants some of you might have done in Grandmas basement. A joyful tribute to the holiday season! Followed each performance by milk & cookies.

Cyrano
February 9 - March 4
Written by Michael P. Dalberg
Directed by Tony Lawry
An original retelling of the French classic by Edmond Rostand, this romantic comedy follows Cyrano, a female soldier, in a tale of unrequited love. As she vies for the beautiful Roxanne, Cyrano wrestles with self-doubt, body-shaming, and toxic masculinity in a world of "all's fair in love and war," armed with sword-like quips, fair friends, and more than a fair amount of pastries.
