In the world of basketball, LeBron James is the king. But to die-hard Clevelanders like Shawn and Matt, “King James” is a god, and their fandom forges their unlikely bond. Set in a bar in Cleveland Heights and spanning LeBron’s rookie season to the 2016 NBA Championship, the men navigate their turbulent friendship through their shared love of the game. From the first quarter to the final jump shot, King James comes in clutch as a riveting love letter to our beloved home, “Believeland.” Filled with humor, jabs steps, offensive fouls, and great poignancy, this energetic new play by Pulitzer Prize finalist Rajiv Joseph is an intimate exploration of the place that sports occupy in our lives and in our relationships with others.

A deeply moving tale about community and generational values, Fiddler on the Roof is a heartwarming story of fathers and daughters, husbands and wives, and love and laughter. “L'Chaim!” Previews: April 26 - May 1 | Opening Night: May 2

Jane Austen’s most beloved work brought to life! The outspoken and fiercely independent Elizabeth Bennet is determined to remain single, despite mounting pressure from her hovering and meddlesome mother.

This classic English love story is a surprisingly hilarious, refreshingly modern romcom that celebrates the thrills of finding your perfectly imperfect match. Previews: Sept 7-12 | Opening Night: Sept 13
