Rumors
By Neil Simon
Directed by Lucas Verbrugghe
Rehearsals start Jan 5th. 
Performance Dates: March 5th - 15th, 2026

Rumors is a fast-paced whodunit that promises to keep everyone on the edge of their seats. When guests arrive at a dinner party to find the host unconscious and the hostess missing, panic and confusion take center stage. It’s high society gone hilariously wrong as cover-ups and misunderstandings spiral out of control. Come see this delightful romp through deception, decorum, and disaster!
