A mysterious stranger arrives in a sleepy 1950's town riding a motorcycle and carrying a guitar. The town will never be the same as the handsome stranger proceeds to get everything All Shook Up. The MGR is pleased to be presenting the regional premiere of this most enjoyable musical. The score is all Elvis and includes everything from Jail House Rock to Love me Tender. The twists and turns of the plot are provided by none other than William Shakespeare. The King and the Bard make for a great combination in this charming tale of romance, comedy and oh yeah, great music.

This multi-Tony award winning musical will be our 3rd regional premiere of the summer. We worked especially hard to get the rights to this marvelous piece of theatre. It is the story of a down on his luck Producer and neurotic Accountant who team up to pull the con of the century. They've figured out that they can earn more from a flop than a hit, at least that's what they think. Merry-Go-Round Playhouse is proud to bring Mel Brooks' singing, dancing, comic extravaganza.

  Featuring an award winning score by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, this is the off beat tale of a love triangle between a loveable nerd, a ditzy blond with a heart of gold and a giant man eating plant from outer space. Not your typical love story but a wonderful evening of musical theatre with one soaring song after another. Sit back and fasten your seat belts for this fast paced and completely charming musical comedy.

Church Basement Ladies is an outrageously witty and truly heartwarming musical about the ladies who work in the church kitchen and prove that feeding and “shepherding” the flock is not all sugar and spice. The Playhouse is pleased to bring you the East Coast premiere of the show that is packing the pews throughout the Midwest.
