Venue: Alonso High School, 8302 Montague Street, Tampa

The Alonso Thespians are hoping to go to State this year, and they are reviving their production of Avenue Q this weekend.

Avenue Q is a coming-of-age parable, addressing and satirizing the issues and anxieties associated with entering adulthood. Its characters remember that when they were children, they were assured by their parents and by children's television programs that they were special and could do anything, but as adults, they have discovered that in the real world their options are limited, and they are no more "special" than anyone else.

The musical is also notable for the use of puppets alongside human actors.

Venue: Early Bird Dinner Theatre, 200 South McMullen-Booth Road , Clearwater

The Buckle brothers, Billy and Tom, are in big trouble: Tom's infallible eye for slow horses has drained away all of Billy's savings and he has borrowed from loan shark Pizza Face Petrillo, who now wants his money back or else!

There's plenty of money in grandfather Buckle's will, but these two black sheep are pretty sure they'll never see any of that. What else to do but dress Billy up as a nun and have him pose as their cousin who is to inherit the entire fortune?

Involve a stuffy young lawyer, a hard drinking, man hungry housekeeper and a trio of beautiful young women, and you have the recipe for a laugh packed farce of twists, turns, puns and pratfalls as Tom strives mightily to compensate for Billy's "habitual" errors.

He promises to bring rain, for $100. It's a silly idea, but the rainmaker is so ingratiating that the family finally consents.

The Rainmaker

Time: 3:00 PM
Company: Carrollwood Players
Venue: Carrollwood Playhouse, 4335 Gunn Highway, Tampa

During a paralyzing drought in the West, we meet a girl whose father and brothers are as worried about her becoming an old maid as they are about their dying cattle.

She is indeed a plain girl. The brothers try every possible scheme to marry her off, without success. Nor is there any sign of relief from the dry heat. Suddenly, a captivating character with a golden tongue appears.

He promises to bring rain, for $100. It's a silly idea, but the rainmaker is so ingratiating that the family finally consents. Meanwhile, he turns his magic on the girl, persuading her that she has a very real beauty of her own. She believes him just as her father believes the rain will come. And it does. And so does love.

He promises to bring rain, for $100. It's a silly idea, but the rainmaker is so ingratiating that the family finally consents. Meanwhile, he turns his magic on the girl, persuading her that she has a very real beauty of her own. She believes him just as her father believes the rain will come. And it does. And so does love.

This is the story of Georges, the owner of a glitzy nightclub in lovely Saint-Tropez, and his partner Albin, who moonlights as the glamorous chanteuse Zaza. When Georges' son brings his fiancée's conservative parents home to meet the flashy pair, the bonds of family are put to the test as the feather boas fly! La Cage is a tuneful and touching tale of one family's struggle to stay together... stay fabulous... and above all else, stay true to themselves!

Hairspray delighted audiences by sweeping them away to 1960's Baltimore, where the 50's are out -- and change is in the air. Loveable plus-size heroine, Tracy Turnblad, has a passion for dancing, and wins a spot on the local TV dance program, "The Corny Collins Show." Overnight she finds herself transformed from outsider to teen celebrity. Can a larger-than-life adolescent manage to vanquish the program's reigning princess, integrate the television show, and find true love (singing and dancing all the while, of course!) without mussing her hair? Join the Show Palace for this big, fat musical comedy hit!
