Quasimodo, the deformed bell-ringer who longs to be “Out There,” observes all of Paris reveling in the Feast of Fools. Held captive by his devious caretaker, the archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo, he escapes for the day and joins the boisterous crowd, only to be treated cruelly by all but the beautiful Romani woman, Esmeralda. Quasimodo isn’t the only one captivated by her free spirit, though – the handsome Captain Phoebus and Frollo are equally enthralled. As the three vie for her attention, Frollo embarks on a mission to destroy the Roma – and it’s up to Quasimodo to save them all.

Toad of Toad Hall is an eccentric but likable chap given to ’crazes.’ His latest craze involves motorcars. Unfortunately, he smashes them up as fast as he gets them.

His dear friends Badger, Rat, and Mole do their best to help, but their efforts aren’t enough, and Toad ends up in prison… after an uproarious courtroom scene. His imprisonment couldn’t please his enemies, the weasels, more. They quickly take over Toad Hall and trash the place. Meanwhile, the jailer’s daughter, Polly, thinks Toad is an exceptional fellow and helps him escape dressed as a washerwoman! On his way back home, he has a wild adventure with a barge owner who is horrified to discover the washerwoman is actually a toad. When Toad finally meets up with his friends again, they devise a clever scheme to recapture Toad Hall from the weasels in another wild scene. Performances: Jan. 30-Feb. 1 & Feb. 5-8

Three one-act plays from the Provincetown Players, with additional material by Minnesota playwright James Lundy.​ In the summer of 1915, a restless collection of Greenwich Village artists gathered in the cool seaside air of Provincetown, Massachusetts—writers, dreamers, and social radicals determined to create something new. Their experiments sparked the Provincetown Players—and triggered a revolution in American theater. Playing Provincetown recaptures those debut performances at the Wharf Theater through three one-act plays that express the wit, courage, and social insight of their time. ​Constancy by Neith Boyce (1915) Set in a modest seaside cottage, Constancy explores fidelity and the shifting expectations of love at a time when women were beginning to claim new freedoms. The play centers on Moira, an artist who challenges traditional gender roles, and her lover, Rex, a writer wrestling with jealousy and self-importance. Their conversation—part flirtation, part philosophical duel—reveals the tension between artistic ideals and human frailty. Boyce, herself a novelist and suffragist, crafts a battle of intellect and emotion that mirrors the early feminist conversations stirring in Greenwich Village. Beneath its civilized tone, Constancy asks a timeless question: can love survive equality? ​ Suppressed Desires by Susan Glaspell and George Cram “Jig” Cook (1915) A sharp, comedic send-up of the era’s obsession with psychoanalysis, Suppressed Desires follows a well-intentioned wife who tries to improve her marriage by diagnosing everyone around her. Henrietta Brewster, newly converted to Freud’s theories, is determined to unearth her husband Stephen’s hidden complexes—whether he has any or not. Her relentless probing drives both Stephen and her visiting sister to the brink of madness. With brisk dialogue and biting humor, Glaspell and Cook expose how intellectual fashion can distort genuine human connection. The play’s humor still resonates today, poking fun at our eternal tendency to self-analyze, overthink, and project meaning where there may be none. ​Trifles by Susan Glaspell (1916) In Trifles, Glaspell moves from satire to suspense. Inspired by a real murder case she once covered as a journalist, the play examines the quiet power of observation—and the silent worlds of women. When a farmer is found dead, two women accompany the sheriff and county attorney to the crime scene. As the men search for evidence, dismissing the “trifles” of domestic life, the women uncover the emotional truth behind the killing. Glaspell’s masterful use of subtext transforms what seems like a simple investigation into a profound indictment of gendered justice. A century later, Trifles remains a cornerstone of American drama and an early landmark of feminist storytelling. ​ Together, these three short plays chart the birth of a new voice in theater—intimate, socially conscious, and unafraid to question the structures of power. Playing Provincetown returns these voices to the stage, reminding us that artistic revolutions often begin not in grand theaters, but in a wharf by the sea.

The Lovers’ Landing Beach Hotel, a popular wedding destination, has acquired a certain mystique as the home of Sandy Toes & Salty Kisses. Recently inheriting the hotel from her late father, Audrina Brown quickly discovers that her Uncle Bubba, the hotel manager, is running a variety of “extra-curricular activities” on the property. It’s a mystery. It’s a love story. It’s a new farce by the authors of Sex Please We’re Sixty. Performances February 12, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20, 21, 22

Three one-act plays from the Provincetown Players, with additional material by Minnesota playwright James Lundy.​ In the summer of 1915, a restless collection of Greenwich Village artists gathered in the cool seaside air of Provincetown, Massachusetts—writers, dreamers, and social radicals determined to create something new. Their experiments sparked the Provincetown Players—and triggered a revolution in American theater. Playing Provincetown recaptures those debut performances at the Wharf Theater through three one-act plays that express the wit, courage, and social insight of their time. ​Constancy by Neith Boyce (1915) Set in a modest seaside cottage, Constancy explores fidelity and the shifting expectations of love at a time when women were beginning to claim new freedoms. The play centers on Moira, an artist who challenges traditional gender roles, and her lover, Rex, a writer wrestling with jealousy and self-importance. Their conversation—part flirtation, part philosophical duel—reveals the tension between artistic ideals and human frailty. Boyce, herself a novelist and suffragist, crafts a battle of intellect and emotion that mirrors the early feminist conversations stirring in Greenwich Village. Beneath its civilized tone, Constancy asks a timeless question: can love survive equality? ​ Suppressed Desires by Susan Glaspell and George Cram “Jig” Cook (1915) A sharp, comedic send-up of the era’s obsession with psychoanalysis, Suppressed Desires follows a well-intentioned wife who tries to improve her marriage by diagnosing everyone around her. Henrietta Brewster, newly converted to Freud’s theories, is determined to unearth her husband Stephen’s hidden complexes—whether he has any or not. Her relentless probing drives both Stephen and her visiting sister to the brink of madness. With brisk dialogue and biting humor, Glaspell and Cook expose how intellectual fashion can distort genuine human connection. The play’s humor still resonates today, poking fun at our eternal tendency to self-analyze, overthink, and project meaning where there may be none. ​Trifles by Susan Glaspell (1916) In Trifles, Glaspell moves from satire to suspense. Inspired by a real murder case she once covered as a journalist, the play examines the quiet power of observation—and the silent worlds of women. When a farmer is found dead, two women accompany the sheriff and county attorney to the crime scene. As the men search for evidence, dismissing the “trifles” of domestic life, the women uncover the emotional truth behind the killing. Glaspell’s masterful use of subtext transforms what seems like a simple investigation into a profound indictment of gendered justice. A century later, Trifles remains a cornerstone of American drama and an early landmark of feminist storytelling. ​ Together, these three short plays chart the birth of a new voice in theater—intimate, socially conscious, and unafraid to question the structures of power. Playing Provincetown returns these voices to the stage, reminding us that artistic revolutions often begin not in grand theaters, but in a wharf by the sea.

A man with a boring life meets a woman with a thick accent who says she’s a spy. When he takes her home, she is murdered. Soon, a mysterious organization called “The 39 Steps” is hot on the man’s trail in a nationwide manhunt that climaxes in a death-defying finale! A riotous blend of virtuoso performances and wildly inventive stagecraft, The 39 Steps amounts to an unforgettable evening of pure pleasure Shows Dates: Feb 27th 28th & Mar 1st Mar 6th, 7th & 8th
