CLUE LIVE: AN IMPROVISED MYSTERY GAME NIGHT

OCTOBER 3RD

GFCT’s Experimental Theatre Company invites you to an evening of murder and mystery like never before. It’s a classic case of whodunit as Ms. Boddy’s body hits the floor, and everyone’s a suspect. As a live game of clue is played on the table, our cast of dubious characters jump to make a scene out of this crime through the even more dubious art of improv. Will you solve the mystery of who did the deed? Play the game, and you just might be surprised by the answer.

MENOPAUSE THE MUSICAL® 2: CRUISING THROUGH THE CHANGE

OCTOBER 10TH - 13TH

All aboard, sisters! The hysterical sequel to the smash-hit Menopause The Musical® is finally here! Five years after their chance encounter in a department store, we set sail with our beloved ladies for more high jinks on the high seas. Menopause The Musical 2: Cruising Through ‘The Change’® is a hilarious and heartfelt look at the joys of menopause and friendship — plus hot flashes, mood swings, and memory lapses! Join us on a trip of self-discovery, backed by a new soundtrack of toe-tapping parodied hits from the 70s, 80s and 90s. For these four ladies, menopause was not the end, but the beginning of a beautiful friendship where love conquers all, and friendships never fail.
