SUMMARY:A DOLL’S HOUSE\, PART 2
DESCRIPTION:A DOLL’S HOUSE\, PART 2\nPlaying in the Long Beach Playhouse’s Studio Theater\nJuly 18 – Aug. 15\, 2026\nBy Lucas Hnath\nDirected by Phyllis Gitlin\nFifteen years ago\, Nora Helmer slammed the door on her stifling domestic life\, leaving behind her husband and children for a life unknown.  Now she is knocking at that same door\, having returned with an urgent request for her former husband. Before Nora can get what she needs\, she must reckon with the people she left\, all of whom have some choice words for the former Mrs. Helmer. A DOLL’S HOUSE\, PART 2 is a funny\, probing\, and bold new drama/comedy that is at once a continuation of Ibsen’s play and a heartfelt meditation on how far we’ve come in the century and a quarter since. \n  \nPURCHASE YOUR TICKETS HERE:\nCHOOSE YOUR DATE:\n\nFriday\, July 31\, 8pm\nSaturday\, August 1\, 8pm\nSunday\, August 2\, 2pm\nFriday\, August 7\, 8pm\nSaturday\, August 8\, 8pm\nSunday\, August 9\, 2pm\nFriday\, August 14\, 8pm\nSaturday\, August 15\, 8pm – Closing Night\n\nAGE LIMIT\nAs a courtesy to our patrons\, it is the policy of the theatre not to admit children under the age of 5.

Narrated by a pompous Lecturer\, the show follows all-American teenager Jimmy Harper as he’s lured into a reefer den and his wholesome life spirals into deception\, obsession\, and madness. Outrageous and over-the-top. It’s 1930s camp\, gangster movies\, and musical theater madness colliding with sharp wit and a killer score. \nCASTING THE FOLLOWING ROLES:\nAll roles are open. Long Beach Playhouse encourages actors of all backgrounds\, gender identities\, and abilities to audition. \nNOTE:  REEFER MADNESS is a hilarious\, over-the-top adult musical comedy like the Rocky Horror Show that contains simulated drug use\, and comedic\, simulated orgy-like scenes as well as simulated sexual scenes.  Please read the script before auditioning to make sure you are comfortable doing a show like this.  Due to the adult nature of the show\, no one under the age of 18 will be cast. \nJIMMY HARPER (M\, Tenor\, 18-24): A wholesome\, innocent student who runs into trouble after he’s lured into the dangerous world of reefer.

Dry comic presence. Must own the stage. Must sing. (Plays multiple different roles in the show.  Role as GOAT MAN/SATYR in Bacchanal requires being seen bare-chested in a skimpy satyr costume.) \nJACK STONE (M\, Bass/Baritone\, 25-40): The villain.

High energy comic role. Must sing and move.

SUMMARY:BLITHE SPIRIT
DESCRIPTION:BLITHE SPIRIT\nPlaying in the Long Beach Playhouse’s Mainstage Theater\nOct. 31 – Nov. 28\, 2026\nBy Noël Coward\nDirected by Lauren Velasco\nFrom the effervescent mind of Noël Coward comes his engaging comedy of ghostly charms\, BLITHE SPIRIT.  When a seance goes awry\, the fussy\, cantankerous novelist Charles Condomine finds himself quite literally haunted by the ghost of his first wife\, Elvira.  As she makes her displeasure about Charles’ current wife Ruth known\, personalities clash\, and the eccentric and flighty medium Madame Arcati is called back in to resolve this love triangle from beyond the grave.  A smash hit\, this much-revived classic is a rip-roaring and scintillating comedy\, swimming in the expertly crafted dialogue that only the wit of Noël Coward can produce. \nPURCHASE YOUR TICKETS HERE:\nGet a Season Subscription now to the 2026 – 2027 Mainstage Season by calling our Box Office at 562-494-1014 option 1.  Individual tickets for single performances will be available to purchase August 5. \nCHOOSE YOUR DATE:\n\nFriday\, Oct. 30\, 2026\, 8pm – Half Price Preview\nSaturday\, Oct. 31 (Halloween)\, 2026\, 8pm – Opening Night and Champagne Gala\nFriday\, Nov. 6\, 2026\, 8pm\nSaturday\, Nov. 7\, 2026\, 8pm\nSunday\, Nov. 8\, 2026\, 2pm\nFriday\, Nov. 13\, 2026\, 8pm\nSaturday\, Nov. 14\, 2026\, 8pm\nSunday\, Nov. 15\, 2026\, 2pm\nFriday\, Nov. 20\, 2026\, 8pm\nSaturday\, Nov. 21\, 2026\, 8pm\nSunday\, Nov. 22\, 2026\, 2pm\nFriday\, Nov. 27\, 2026\, 8pm\nSaturday\, Nov. 28\, 2026\, 8pm – Closing Night\n\nAGE LIMIT\nAs a courtesy to our patrons\, it is the policy of the theatre not to admit children under the age of 5.

SUMMARY:GLORIOUS!
DESCRIPTION:GLORIOUS!: The True Story of Florence Foster Jenkins\, the Worst Singer in the World\nPlaying in the Long Beach Playhouse’s Mainstage Theater\nMay 15 – June 12\, 2027\nBy Peter Quilter\nDirected by Gregory Cohen\nA blissfully funny comedy set in the world of 1940s New York\, GLORIOUS! tells the true story of Florence Foster Jenkins\, an enthusiastic soprano whose pitch was far from perfect. Known as “the first lady of the sliding scale\,” she warbled and screeched her way through a performance to an audience who fell down with laughter. Delusional and joyously happy\, Miss Jenkins paid little attention to her critics\, supported by a circle of devoted friends who were almost as eccentric as she was. But when the chance to play Carnegie Hall comes up\, will it be the ultimate triumph\, or proof that her vision of musical glory was only in her own mind? \nPURCHASE YOUR TICKETS HERE:\nGet a Season Subscription now to the 2026 – 2027 Mainstage Season by calling our Box Office at 562-494-1014 option 1.  Individual tickets for single performances will be available to purchase August 5. \nCHOOSE YOUR DATE:\n\nFriday\, May 14\, 2027\, 8pm – Half Price Preview\nSaturday\, May 15\, 2027\, 8pm – Opening Night and Champagne Gala\nFriday\, May 21\, 2027\, 8pm\nSaturday\, May 22\, 2027\, 8pm\nSunday\, May 23\, 2027\, 2pm\nFriday\, May 28\, 2027\, 8pm\nSaturday\, May 29\, 2027\, 8pm\nSunday\, May 30\, 2027\, 2pm\nFriday\, June 4\, 2027\, 8pm\nSaturday\, June 5\, 2027\, 8pm\nSunday\, June 6\, 2027\, 2pm\nFriday\, June 11\, 2027\, 8pm\nSaturday\, June 12\, 2027\, 8pm – Closing Night\n\n  \nAGE LIMIT\nAs a courtesy to our patrons\, it is the policy of the theatre not to admit children under the age of 5.
