Synopsis: When Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, he is prepared for the inevitable adjustment period at his new high school. But he’s not prepared for the rigorous local edicts, including a ban on dancing instituted by the local preacher, who is determined to exercise control over the town’s youth. When the reverend’s rebellious daughter sets her sights on Ren, her roughneck boyfriend tries to sabotage Ren’s reputation, with many of the locals eager to believe the worst about the new kid. The heartfelt story that emerges pins a father longing for the son he lost against a young man aching for the father who walked out on him.

Hollie Berry and her kids are opening up an old resort hotel they recently inherited, and it seems like it’s going to be a roaring success.  First, a pair of bird-watching sisters, Patty and Pearl Partridge, show up, followed by high profile guests from Liechtenstein — the Count and Countess of Monte Sisco.  Unfortunately, it doesn’t take long for things to go south.  A diamond bracelet belonging to the Countess suddenly goes missing.  When someone suggests it was swiped by a ghost, the Partridge sisters confess they’re not birdwatchers, but ghost hunters trying to gather footage for a reality show they want to sell.  According to them, the ghost of a mobster, Rat Face Louie, has haunted the hotel since he was gunned down there.  You can imagine everyone’s surprise when the very next guest is a classic gangster-looking man!  He’s followed by a pair of the worst folk-singing hippies ever!  In this spirited comedy, Hollie and her kids quickly learn that nobody at their hotel is who they say they are.  In fact, you could say they’re all traveling Inn-Cognito!

This Broadway hit about the trial of two Marines for complicity in the death of a fellow Marine at Guantanamo Bay sizzles on stage. The Navy lawyer, a callow young man more interested in softball games than the case, expects a plea bargain and a cover-up of what really happened. Prodded by a female member of his defense team, the lawyer eventually makes a valiant effort to defend his clients and, in so doing, puts the military mentality and the Marine code of honor on trial.
