For how much would you sell your soul? Kit Marlow’s masterpiece examines good, evil, the seductive nature of power and the chance for redemption if one is brave enough to take it. DRT explores a new approach with this classic piece, elevating it above a single time and place to resonate with today’s audience.

Joyful Noise

by Tim Slover

December 13 - 29, 2007

This uplifting story looks at the gift of inspiration, the struggle of the artist against the “politics” of art as a business, and the redemptive power of forgiving oneself. This beautiful portrayal of Handel’s writing of the Messiah takes us to the court of George II but delivers a message of joy and triumph for the ages.

As You Like It

by William Shakespeare

April 24 - May 3, 2008   at Heritage Academy

Shakespeare’s beloved comedy takes you into the forest of Arden where young exiles learn about attraction and themselves, realizing that real love can only exist between real people. A delightful and charming romp from the court to the wilderness and back.
