The Full Monty

Starring Sally Struthers and Adrian Zmed with Michael Halling, Susan Powell and Kingsley Leggs!

September 18 – October 6!

Music and lyrics by David Yazbek
Book by Terrence McNally

Based on the Motion Picture Released by Fox Searchlight Pictures Written by Simon Beaufoy, Produced by Uberto Pasolini and Directed by Peter Cattaneo

The Full Monty is based on the smash-hit British film of the same name and combines a heartfelt message of self-acceptance with boundless humor. Prompted by the need for quick cash and their wives’ response to It's a Woman's World!watching male strippers at “Girl’s Night Out”, a down-on-their-luck group of unemployed steelworkers decide to stage a strip show of their own. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, but mostly you’ll stand and cheer as Emmy Award winning Sally Struthers stars in this hilarious musical comedy. Under the guidance of show-biz savvy accompanist, Jeanette, played by Struthers, they begin rehearsals and soon realize that they must confront their own very real fears and insecurities. Jerry Lukowski, the central character, Things Could be Better 'Round Here!who is driven by his love for his son, knows deep down that going “the full monty” is more about what’s on the inside than what’s on the outside.  “Is it only about people taking their clothes off?  Absolutely not!” says Brad Kenney, Executive Artistic Director.  “If we do it well, no one will be offended, and every one will be surprised.  But it’s the story underneath it that is important”.s

Don’t miss this heartwarming story, nominated for ten Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical and Best Original Score, as the men find not only strength of friendship, but the strength they find in each other gives them the individual courage to face their own demons - and overcome them.  Will they or won’t they go “the full monty”?A Big Black Man
