The massively popular adult puppet musical "Avenue Q" comes to the Ocean Beach Playhouse and Arts Center in San Diego. Full of humor and hummable tunes, "Avenue Q" is a hilarious look at life in New York, featuring a fantastic mixed cast of people and puppets. In its Broadway debut, "Avenue Q" scored the "Triple Crown" of Tony wins, grabbing honors for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book. The lovable cast of characters, both flesh and felt, includes recent college grad Princeton, who moves to Avenue Q full of hope for the future, Kate (the girl-monster next door), and the colorful collection of neighbors who help Princeton discover his true purpose in life. While the show draws inspiration from a certain beloved children's show, you'll definitely want to leave the kiddos at home for this one -- these puppets have quite the potty mouths on them, and there's even some "full puppet nudity" involved.

When it comes to something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue, few brides expect the something "old" to be an uninvited ex-lover. It's Courtney's wedding day, and her mom, Delia, is making sure that everything is perfect. The groom is perfect, the dress is perfect and the decorations (assuming they arrive) will be perfect. Then -- like in any good farce -- the doorbell rings and all hell breaks loose. So much for perfect. Written by acerbic, manic, belligerent stand-up comedian Lewis Black, "One Slight Hitch" marches onto the stage at Point Loma Playhouse. [less-]

Roll the dice with "Guys & Dolls", the gritty musical fable that takes you back to prohibition-era New York City, with a little side trip to Havana. "Guys & Dolls" soars with the spirit of Broadway, embodied in its cast of vivid characters, including: Sarah Brown, the upright but uptight "mission doll," out to reform the evildoers of Time Square; Sky Masterson, the slick, high-rolling gambler who woos her on a bet and ends up falling in love; Adelaide, the chronically ill nightclub performer who's been engaged to the same man for 14 years; and Nathan Detroit, her devoted fiancé, desperate as always to find a spot for his infamous floating crap game. Based on "The Idyll of Sarah Brown" and characters by Damon Runyon, plus an iconic score by Frank Loesser that includes such songs as "Luck Be A Lady," "Sit Down You're Rocking the Boat," "If I Were A Bell," and "A Bushel and a Peck," "Guys & Dolls" is a timeless treat at Star Theatre in Oceanside.

More than 65 years after it was first produced, Arthur Miller's American tragedy about the Keller family -- entrepreneur father, devoted mother, war-hero sons -- and their fall from grace still resonates with audiences. Miller's probing has never been sharper, nor his target more intimate, than in this play considered by many to be his first commercial success and the work that established him as a leading American playwright ("Death of a Salesman"). Set immediately following World War II, "All My Sons" tells the story of one day and a night during which past secrets surface and threaten to shake the entire Keller clan to its core. This deeply engaging tale of morality and consciousness explores the bonds of family and social responsibility as two very different generations seek to heal and rebuild. Inspired by a true story, "All My Sons" won two Tony Awards and the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for the Best American Play of 1947. Now OnStage Playhouse brings the American masterpiece to Chula Vista. [less-]
