Active Productions

Ars Nova is pleased to announce the productions for its 2008-2009 Season.  They include:

  • Really Rosie

        This production is sponsoring the "Reader's Theatre" as a benefit for the Huntsville Library. Performances are at 11:00 and 2:00. There is a workshop beginning 30 minutes before each performance. The workshop will involve learning some songs from Really Rosie, readings from the story and a bowl of chicken soup with rice.

       

Synopsis

Really Rosie follows a typical summer day in the life of several neighborhood friends. Like many children, they claim to be bored. Luckily, their friend (and self-proclaimed leader) Rosie does not believe in being bored and she decides to film the story of her life, casting them all in supporting roles. They must audition first (of course) and then musically tell the exciting, dramatic, funny (and slightly exaggerated) story of her life. In addition to Rosie and her friends Alligator, Kathy, Pierre and Johnny, there is her dopey brother Chicken Soup, their parents and the residents of their neighborhood. 

 

  • La Bohème

        Seating is general admission. Ticket prices are: General Admission $20.00, Seniors $18.00 and Students $15.00. Click here to purchase tickets.          

      

Life may not be easy, but it is beautiful in this tale of young love in Paris. Ever since its first performances Puccini’s La Bohème has been adored. A chance meeting by moonlight, a street-side café and the artists’ garret – they all come alive through Puccini’s music, which delicately captures love at first sight, youthful exuberance and the sorrow of loss. This really is musical storytelling at its best.
