A ferocious beast has been terrorizing the Baskerville family for generations and Sir Henry Baskerville is next on its list.

Throw in a cast of over forty characters, played by only five actors, and you are in for an evening of dastardly villains, beautiful maidens, and a sidesplitting retelling of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's classic tale The Hound of the Baskerville's. If you loved LTVB's production of The 39 Steps, then you'll go mad for this laugh-out-loud comedy! Show rating: PG

Credits
By Oscar Wilde
You are cordially invited to a comedy of manners, sophistication, and frivolity that could only come from the mind of Oscar Wilde! Meet two dashing bachelors and dear friends, Jack Worthing and Algernon Moncrieff, who each created an alter ego in order to escape the humdrum of gentlemanly life and the boring trappings of respectability that go along with it. Enter the Honorable Gwendolen and the fair Cecily, who are determined to marry a man named Ernest. Add to the mix a domineering and society focused matriarch, a missing heir, and a battered handbag, and you have Oscar Wilde's classic drawing room comedy. If you’re in the mood for an evening of witty dialogue, snappy repartee and charming plot twists, look no further than Little Theatre of Virginia Beach this winter! Show rating: PG

Music and Lyrics by Wayne Kirkpatrick and Karey Kirkpatrick
Book by Karey Kirkpatrick and John O'Farrell
The year: 1595. The place: London. The Queen: Elizabeth…the first! The story: brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom have hit, well, bottom, and that dastardly bard, William Shakespeare, dominates the London theatre scene. It would take a miracle to predict the next great hit that will leave Shakespeare in the dust. Enter Thomas Nostradamus, the slightly less talented nephew of the famous Nostradamus, who predicts the earth-shattering notion of “A Musical!” What ensues is musical comedy genius with song, dance, and deceit as the brothers attempt to preempt Shakespeare’s next big hit. These boys are ready to have their moment in the limelight… but maybe London isn’t. All we can say is that the theatre world will never be the same after these two are done with it! Show rating: PG-13
