In 1893 Paris, La Môme Pistache, the proud owner of a Montmartre dance hall, battles with Aristide Forestiere, a self-righteous judge determined to close all establishments featuring the scandalous can-can. Eventually, the two fall in love, and the judge concedes that “obscenity is in the eye of the beholder.”

Can-Can premiered on Broadway on May 7, 1953 at the Shubert Theatre, where it ran for 892 performances. Directed by Abe Burrows, the production featured Lilo, Hans Conried, Peter Cookson, Erik Rhodes and Gwen Verdon.
Can-Can was the Winner of Two 1954 Tony Awards, for Best Featured Actress and Choreography, the Winner of the 1954 Theatre World Award for Outstanding Stage Performance by Gwen Verdon, and a Nominee for Three 1981 Tony Awards, including Best Choreography.

Introducing Woodstock Playhouse's performance of Clue: On Stage, running July 25-27th!

It’s a dark and stormy night, and you’ve been invited to a very unusual dinner party. Each of the guests has an alias, the butler offers a variety of weapons, and the host is, well, dead. So whodunit? Join the iconic oddballs known as Scarlet, Plum, White, Green, Peacock, and Mustard as they race to find the murderer in Boddy Manor before the body count stacks up. Based on the cult classic 1985 Paramount film and the popular, family favorite Hasbro board game, CLUE is a madcap comedy that will keep you guessing until the final twist.

​​This performance is brought to the stage of the iconic Woodstock Playhouse featuring the Woodstock Playhouse Summer Theatre Cast 2025, a regional company of rising pre-Broadway-professional performers widely acclaimed for some of the finest performances in our NY & Tri-State region.
