Fall Musical: Into The Woods

The Brothers Grimm hit the stage with an epic fairytale about wishes, family and the choices we make.

The story follows a Baker and his wife, who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the King’s Festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the Baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a Witch’s curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse. Everyone’s wish is granted, but the consequences of their actions return to haunt them later with disastrous results.

James Lapine and Stephen Sondheim take everyone’s favorite storybook characters and bring them together for a timeless, yet relevant, piece… and a rare modern classic. The Tony Award-winning book and score are both enchanting and touching.

OPENING NIGHT GALA
PTG is hosting an Opening Night Gala to celebrate the return to Schreiber Auditorium for the first time since winter 2020!

Friday, November 4th @ 6:00pm
Pioneer High School Annex
Tickets: $75 (plus $6 fees)

The ticket includes a premium seat, a program signed by the cast and crew, dinner and dessert, music, and a pre-show celebration.

Please consider purchasing tickets to this event to support PTG! We took many losses to our program with the shutdown in the spring of 2020, the virtual school year in 2020-2021, and fewer shows in 2021-2022 due to last-minute safety renovations in our theaters. We are so excited to return to the space and we hope you will help us celebrate!

Winter Play: You On The Moors Now

Written By: Jaclyn Backhaus
Directed By: Julia Glander & Alex Leydenfrost

Four literary heroines of the nineteenth century set conventionalism ablaze when they turn down marriage proposals from their equally famous gentlemen callers. What results is a confluence of love, anger, grief, and bloodshed, as the ensemble struggles to reconcile romantic ideologies of the past with their modern ideas of courtship. Everything you’ve learned about love from the pages of Pride and Prejudice, Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre, and Little Women is turned upside down in this grand theatrical battle royale.

Please note that “You on the Moors Now” contains adult themes, strong language, and implied violence.

RisingStars Directors: Ryan Lewis, Dana Steiner
Host Coach: Sevon Askew
Performance Coach: Callum Mein

FutureStars 2023 returns for its 21st year and the first year back in Schreiber Auditorium at Pioneer High School since 2020. A citywide talent search for Ann Arbor’s next star, FutureStars features students from Ann Arbor’s public high schools as they perform popular songs by various artists and compete for the title of FutureStar 2023!

Students are guided by professional coaches who prepare the students vocally, work collaboratively to stage the numbers, and ultimately help student’s discover and showcase their unique talents. The event also features two medley performances by the RisingStars, a show-choir-inspired group that feature the incredible talents of the underclassmen. Students also serve as the hosts for the evening – they write the script and MC the show.

The evening’s performances are judged by a panel of judges. The judges select the top five performances and then the audience ultimately crowns the winner of FutureStars based on a sound decibel meter.

Spring Musical: Oklahoma!

Music by Richard Rodgers
Book and Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II
Original Choreography by Agnes de Mille
Based on the play Green Grow the Lilacs by Lynn Riggs

Director & Co-Choreographer: Luke Mannikus
Associate Director & Co-Choreographer: Caleb McArthur
Scene Coach: Sevon Askew
Music Director: Duncan McConaughey
Pit Conductor: Tyler Driskill

Rodgers and Hammerstein’s first collaboration remains, in many ways, their most innovative, setting the standards and rules of modern musical theatre. In a Western territory just after the turn of the 20th century, a high-spirited rivalry between local farmers and cowboys provides a colorful background for Curly, a charming cowboy, and Laurey, a feisty farm girl, to play out their love story. Their romantic journey, as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road, contrasts with the comic exploits of brazen Ado Annie and hapless Will Parker in a musical adventure embracing hope, determination and the promise of a new land.
