Get ready to laugh, cheer, and tap your toes as Stepping Out hits the stage with a fabulous cast including Patti Greer, Joanna Treffers, and Chrystine Williams!
Get ready to tap into your joy and step out of your routine—because Richard Harris’ smash-hit comedy Stepping Out is taking the stage under the brilliant direction of Jane Stott!
This isn’t just a play—it’s a feel-good phenomenon! Set in a community hall, Stepping Out follows a motley crew of amateur tap dancers who gather once a week for class. What starts as a clumsy collection of missteps turns into a heartwarming, hilarious journey of friendship, resilience, and personal transformation.
Its Live Theatre Magic – There’s nothing like the energy of a live performance. The music, the movement, the mishaps, the triumphs—it’s all happening right in front of you, in real time. That’s the magic of Stepping Out.
So grab your friends, put on your dancing shoes (or at least your theatre-going shoes), and join us for an unforgettable night of laughter, love, and a little bit of tap.

As Queen Eleanor says, “Every family has its ups and downs”, and this royal family is no exception. King Henry retorts “It’s going to be a jungle of a day: if I start growling now, I’ll never last.” Eleanor and Henry’s three juvenile sons are vying and scheming for the crown, willing to do anything to get it, whilst a likewise young King of France skulks around the castle in order stirring the pot of their discontent. A Christmas helping of wit, bristling humor, intrigue and dungeons.

In The Friend, writer and teacher Iris (Naomi Watts) finds her comfortable, solitary New York life thrown into disarray after her closest friend and mentor (Bill Murray) dies suddenly and bequeaths her his beloved 150 lb. Great Dane. The regal yet intractable beast, named Apollo, immediately creates practical problems for Iris, from furniture destruction to eviction notices, as well as more existential ones, his looming presence constantly reminding her of her friend’s problematic choices in both life and death. Yet as Iris finds herself unexpectedly bonding with the animal, she begins to come to terms with her past, her lost friend, and her own creative inner life.
