I Am of Ireland

A dramatic and musical entertainment of poetry and song from the love life 
and revolutionary times of Ireland's greatest poet, W.B. Yeats, 

"Shakespearean actor, Jack Aranson, 
lifted the poems from the page and 
transmuted them into living song."

- Poetry Society of America

Mr. Aranson, who for many years acted and directed in the Irish Theatre, performs many poems as he tells the story of W.B. Yeats and comments on the people, places and events associated with him, including  Lady Gregory, John Synge, Maude Gonne, Sean O'Casey, The Abbey Theatre and the Irish Revolution.  Also included are poems of Oscar Wilde, Henry Carey, and Patrick Pearse.  Miss Cummings sings songs by many Irish composers including Thomas Moore, Percy French to name a few. You will hear Down By The Sally Gardens, The Isle of Innisfree, Mountains of Mourne, Danny Boy and many others.


 by A.R. Gurney
The love story of Andy & Melissa and their 
40 year courtship. A bittersweet comedy of 
romance and devotion told through the act of
 writing and reading letters. Love Letters is an
 evening of wit and compassion of need and 
bawdy humor but above all love. 

Highlights from the century's greatest musical hit, focusing on the Henry Higgins and Eliza Doolittle relationship.

"This concert performance is not a cut-down version 
of the musical, but a full theatrical experience 
that must be seen and heard to be believed"

- James F. Cutter, Times Herald Record

Scenes and songs include: Why Can't The English, Wouldn't It Be Loverly, 
I'm an Ordinary Man, Just You Wait, The Rain in Spain, 
I Could Have Danced All Night, Show Me, Get Me to the Church on Time, 
Hymn to Him and I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face
