The company's productions take the audience beyond cultural boundaries to where tradition meets innovation and freedom arises from discipline.

Selected as one of the Best of 2004 by Curtain Up!, and voted one of the top-10 plays of 2004 by Performing Arts Insider, this original musical comedy revue tells the story of the "ten year lunch" that was the Algonquin Roundtable, a gathering of the wittiest literary lights of the 1920s, including Dorothy Parker, George S. Kaufman and Alexander Woollcott. Loaded with their unforgettable quips, critiques and put-downs, Talk of the Town traces the legendary skirmishes (both professional and romantic) across that famous round table.
Contains some adult language — recommended for mature audiences.
