    Lizzie: A New Musical
    Hosted by Phoenix Creative Collective and Merced Multicultural Arts Center - the MAC


    On a sweltering summer morning in 1892, in a small New England city, a prominent businessman and his wife were brutally axed to death in their home. Their daughter Lizzie Borden was the prime suspect. Lizzie’s trial was a coast-to-coast media sensation, and her story has become an American legend.


    LIZZIE is four women fronting a six-piece rock band. LIZZIE is rage, sex, betrayal, and bloody murder. LIZZIE is American mythology set to a blistering rock score. LIZZIE is a new American musical with a sound owing less to Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Webber than to Bikini Kill, the Runaways, and Heart.
    February 13-29 at the MAC

    Roald Dahl's Matilda the Musical
    Hosted by Playhouse Merced
    Sponsored by the Donald and Betty Stewart Family
    Rated 5 for 5 years and up


    Book by Dennis Kelly; Music and lyrics by Tim Minchin; Based on the book, Matilda by Roald Dahl


    Matilda is the story of an extraordinary little girl with supernatural powers. The daughter of abusive parents, Matilda finds refuge in library books and in creating her own stories. Things are no better at school, where Matilda also must face a tyrannical and cruel headmistress, Miss Trunchbull. Not everyone Matilda encounters is so evil. Her teacher, Miss Honey, is kind but doesn't have the strength to challenge authority. Matilda knows she has to stand up to the bullies, and in doing so, discovers her own remarkable powers. Matilda's bravery teaches Miss Honey and her classmates an important lesson -- that even though life can be hard, "nobody but me is gonna change my story" so "sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty."

    Puffs
    Workshop 44 and Paraiso Brewery
    For seven years a certain boy wizard went to a certain Wizard School and conquered evil. This, however, is not his story. This is the story of the Puffs... who just happened to be there too. A tale for anyone who has never been destined to save the world.


    The New York Times proclaims PUFFS, “A FAST-PACED ROMP through the ‘Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic.’ For POTTERphiliacs who grew up alongside Potter and are eager to revisit that world, ‘PUFFS’ exudes a jovial, winking fondness for all things Harry!”
