coming soon: 'One Man, Two Guvnors'
April 2nd - 19th, 2026
One Man, Two Guvnors is a fast-paced, hilarious farce that follows the fortunes of Francis Henshall. Down on his luck and permanently hungry, Francis suddenly finds himself employed by two bosses. His first guvnor is Roscoe Crabbe, a revered London gangster who has, apparently, come to Brighton to claim money owed to him.

When disco diva, Deloris Van Cartier, witnesses a murder, she is put in protective custody in the one place the cops are sure she won't be a found: a convent! Disguised as a nun, she finds herself at odds with both the rigid lifestyle and uptight Mother Superior. Using her unique disco moves and singing talent to inspire the choir, Deloris breathes new life into the church and community but, in doing so, blows her cover.
Please note that we have added two additional shows for Sister Act outside of its standard run:

Dear Elizabeth gives voice to this deeply moving and intimate friendship between two of the greatest minds in American history.
