Bah Humbug — Scrooge is returning to radio! Originally produced and broadcast in 2020, Spokane Civic Theatre and Spokane Public Radio’s A CHRISTMAS CAROL Radio Play is re-airing this weekend. Listen live: December 23 at 6:00 PM on KSFC 91.9 December 24 at 2:00 PM on KPBX 91.1 Transporting audiences to a bitterly chilly Christmas Eve night, a hard-hearted miser is visited by four ghosts who take him on a journey to worlds past, present and future. Can Ebenezer Scrooge save himself from the consequences of a lifetime of fear and selfishness, once he is confronted with the full arc of his lonely existence? Based on the book by Charles Dickens Adapted for the stage by Barbara Field Produced by special arrangement with Plays For New Audiences Original Music By Henry McNulty Directed and Produced by Jake Schaefer Minneapolis playwright Barbara Field’s adaptations of A CHRISTMAS CAROL are part of Spokane Civic Theatre’s DNA. We first produced her rich and delightful take on Mr. Dicken’s tale in the late 1970s, under the artful direction of the legendary Dorothy Darby Smith, one of our Founders. Dorothy, and later others, would continue to direct Barbara’s adaptations for many, many holiday seasons, and this included a streamlined version used in later years. In 2020, at Civic’s request, Barbara authorized an updated script to share with the Spokane community, in collaboration with Spokane Public Radio. This production is dedicated to theater trailblazer Barbara Field, 1933 – 2021.
Welcome to closing week of A SHERLOCK CAROL and SHE LOVES ME (limited availability for both). Considered by many to be the most charming musical ever written, SHE LOVES ME is a warm romantic comedy with an endearing innocence and a touch of old-world elegance. The Mikos Lazlos play "Parfuemerie," on which it is based, has inspired many adaptations, including the beloved film "You've Got Mail." Set in a 1930s European perfumery, we meet shop clerks, Amalia and Georg, who, more often than not, don't see eye to eye. After both respond to a "lonely hearts advertisement" in the newspaper, they now live for the love letters that they exchange, but the identity of their admirers remains unknown. Join Amalia and Georg to discover the identity of their true loves... and all the twists and turns along the way!

DRACULA opens Saturday! In this thrilling new adaptation that bounces between horror and humor, playwright Kate Hamill boldly reimagines Bram Stoker’s classic tale of vampires and finds new monsters just beneath the skin. The gothic tropes of villains who wear evil on their sleeve and damsels in distress are replaced by all-too-human monsters and ferocious women who stab at the heart of the patriarchy itself. When your survival is at stake, will you be able to distinguish a monster from a man?

Let the spelling begin! Civic Academy's production of THE 25TH ANNUAL PUTNAM COUNTY SPELLING BEE plays August 11 - 19 in the Studio Theatre. This heartfelt musical comedy follows an eclectic group of tweens who compete for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing “ding” of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Eight spellers enter; one speller leaves! At least the losers get a juice box. RATED PG-13 for language (small number of profanities and vulgarities) and themes (including one character’s puberty-related (embarrassing) anatomical dilemma). While largely a fantastically funny and heartfelt look at a group of elementary schoolers on the cusp of adolescence, some themes may be mature for some young patrons.
