Make plans to join us— check out our summer Performance Schedule.After each performance, photos from the show are available for viewing at the Photo Gallery. This is last Summers' Performance Schedule so you can get an idea of what we typically offer each season. Click the link above if you want to see pictures from the individual shows. The show dates listed here correspond with the dates in the Photo Gallery blog. The new schedule will be up shortly after the start of the new season. Selected short plays written by beloved children's author Shel Silverstein. Hilarious, wacky, edgy, and all around FUN! Four couples, three bedrooms, one loooooong night. More innocent that it sounds, Alan Ayckbourn's charming comedy examines the timeless question, What makes a relationship last? Twice a summer, camper bands have a chance to electrify their friends with real rock star performances (minus the rock star attitudes) at Rock Cafe. Punk, garage, pop, blues and metal groups are all welcome to show off their chops at this high energy concert, which proves that Buck's Rock still knows how to, well, rock! The Taming of the Shrew is William Shakespeare's classic comedy about love, marriage and the roles and expectations of men and women. Join us for a night of camper produced films screened under the stars on the lawn. Entertainment and enjoyment awaits you. We promise you'll be wowed and amazed! There will be popcorn. Washington DC. Tuesday. Round about 1830. The United States is a teenager shaking off wide-eyed childhood and crossing into fitful adolescence. Angsty, moody, cocky and unsure, BBAJ is the punk rock portrayal of a developing country and the president who typified Populism, power, race, money, celebrity and sex: In short, everything we have now. The Clown Show is a sketch comedy variety show, written and performed by Buck's Rock's funniest campers. Directed by a dedicated staff of clowns, campers use improvisation and other techniques to generate sketch material and then rehearse meticulously. The Clown Show is sometimes surreal, absurd, physical, and/or political, but it is always a fun time. This evening is a chance for all our talented campers to perform music they've been working on with their private teachers and in small ensembles. Join us for an evening of chamber music, original compositions, solo performances, and more. The Bacchae is a classic Greek play. Gods, kings, and togas. Hooray! In the midst of a hot, humid summer night, take comfort in the soothing sounds of the Music Shed Concert, an evening of material performed by Buck's Rock's many ensembles. See the a cappella groups turn pop favorites into vocal magic, swoon over the cool players in the jazz combos, get riled up for the dynamic orchestra, and lose yourself in the chorus' massive harmonies. The first session Dance show deals with contrast as inspiration and motivation. Choreographic works will be performed at the Summer Theatre. Don't miss it! All day there will be a display of staff artwork in the Actors Studio. An evening of one-acts, including the marvelous Glass Menagerie parody 'For Whom the Southern Belle Tolls", Durang/Durang is a night of concentrated hilarity of the absurd and often outrageous variety. Escape from Happiness is George Walker's absurdist comedy about an insane mother and her equally insane kids. Sarah Ruhl's moving, evocative, and humorously heartbreaking take on the classic Greek myth. The skies are blue, the hills are green, and Soundgarden is pumping. It's time to leave your home and head to Seattle, the city that launched Jimi Hendrix, the Wilson Sisters, and Kurt Cobain. It's the city that invented the first electric guitar, jazz, and grunge. It's been home to stars of vaudeville and still plays host to the latest new sounds. With names like Jelly Roll Morton, the Fleetwoods, Death Cab for Cutie, Fleet Foxes, and Sir-Mix-A-Lot, Buck's Rock's 13th Annual Tribute Show, a love letter to the music of Seattle, will be a night of music nirvana (so to speak). Head down to the Summer Theatre for a night of performances by our very own rock bands, choirs, orchestra, and jazz ensembles as we pay tribute to the eternal music of Seattle. Adapted from the Roald Dahl short story by Buck's Rock's very own Sam Kusnetz, The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar is a heavily layered ensemble piece about a wealthy man who seeks yogic powers to enhance his fortune. The second session dance show will take its inspiration from the passage of TIME. All new choreographic works perform at the summer theatre. A must-see!
