Our 2008 Season - "The Essence of Eugene"

Actors Cabaret of Eugene is proud to announce its 29th Season!

In the Cabaret		In the Annex

1) Ring Of Fire January 18 - February 23, 2008 Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm Sundays at 2:00pm February 3 & 10, 2008 Straight from the heart of the songs of Johnny Cash, RING OF FIRE is a unique musical show about love and faith, struggle and success, rowdiness and redemption, home and family. RING OF FIRE features over 30 of the music legend's songs such as "Country Boy," "A Thing Called Love," "Five Feet High and Rising," "Daddy Sang Bass," "A Boy Named Sue," "I Walk the Line," "I've Been Everywhere," "The Man in Black" and the title song "Ring of Fire." RING OF FIRE is an almost mythic American tale -- of growing up in simple, dirt-poor surroundings in the heartland of America, leaving home, traveling on the wings of music, finding love, misadventure, success, faith, redemption, and eventually returning home. It's about the journey of a man in search of his own soul. In many ways Johnny Cash wrote and sang about the lives we all lead, regardless of where we lead them. If, after watching this show, you feel yourself being drawn back to your roots, it isn't accidental -- even if you've forgotten what those roots are. We here at ACE hope as we bring these wonderful songs to life, we will touch your heart, mind and soul as well, and take you back to a part of your life you may want to return to. That's what RING OF FIRE is all about. more info » 2) Flight Of The Lawnchair Man March 7-29, 2008 Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm Sundays at 2:00pm Played in last years New York Musical Theater Festival and will have its Northwest Premiere here at Actors Cabaret. A new musical about a guy with a dream, a chair, and 400 helium-filled balloons. Meet Jerry Gorman. He’s a regular guy from Passaic, New Jersey who just wants to fly. The neighbors think he’s nuts. His mother disapproves. But Gracie believes in him. Laugh and cheer as Jerry soars to 16,000 feet with nothing but a lawnchair and 400 helium balloons. FLIGHT OF THE LAWNCHAIR MAN is a new musical that reminds the world that dreams can come true if you believe in yourself. more info » 3) Breaking Up Is Hard To Do April 11 - May 10, 2008 Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 pm Sundays at 2:00pm Set at a Catskills resort in 1960, Breaking Up Is Hard to Do is the sweetly comic story of Lois and Marge, two friends from Brooklyn in search of good times and romance over one wild Labor Day weekend. The score showcases 19 Neil Sedaka classics, including “Where the Boys Are, “ “Sweet Sixteen, “ “Calendar Girl, “ and, of course, the chart-topping title song. more info » 4) Hair at Actors Cabaret June 20 - July 12, 2008 Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm Olympic Trials Special Wednesday & Thursday, July 2 & 3, 2008 at 7:30 PM at The Hult Center's Soreng Theater Friday & Saturday July 18 & 19, 2008 at 8:00 PM Sunday, July 20 at 2:00pm HAIR unfurls at Actors Cabaret! Yes, it’s time to polish those love beads, be at the “be-in” and hail and hearken to a “curly, fuzzy, snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty, shining, gleaming, steaming, flaxen waxen, knotted, twisted, beaded, braided, powdered, flowered, bangled, tangled, spangled” phenomenon called, HAIR.HAIR mirrors the thoughts and feelings of a generation in turmoil over the Vietnam war and asks audiences to take a “trip” back to the days of beads-flowers-freedom and happiness while encouraging you to “drop out” and come to the “be in.” While HAIR is a celebration of flower children and hippies it also has a powerful political message which is still relevant today, But it is the enduring power of the music that sets HAIR apart with a score that reads like an all time top 10 hit singles chart. The American tribal love-rock musical will bring back those good-vibes through its large roster of familiar songs including, “Aquarius”, “Donna”, “Sodomy”, “Manchester, England”, “I Got Life”, “Frank Mills”, “Where Do I Go?”, “Black Boys/White Boys”, “Easy To Be Hard”, “Walking in Space”, “Good Morning Starshine”, and “Let The Sunshine In”. more info » 5) TELL ME (formerly THE CHOCOLATE TREE) Sept. 19 - Oct. 11, 2008 Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm A young girl reaches deep into her lively imagination to take on the most serious challenge she and her family will ever face and, in the process, she changes the world. View the 2007 Season		1) Pigs In Love Dates TBA Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 pm Sundays at 2:00pm Don’t miss the world premiere of Dorothy Velasco’s smart and sassy comedy at ACE’s Annex. Reva KAufman directs PIGS IN LOVE, a heart-felt comedy about self-awareness and the consequences of living a lie. Who do we think we are, who are we really, and does it matter at all? In case you’re wondering, the play contains two of the funniest roles for pigs ever to appear onstage, along with a grandmother, a mother, and a daughter co-existing more-or-less peacefully on a small, suburban farm. more info » PLUS MORE COMING SOON!!
