The new season will include Golf with Alan Shepard, Wrong Turn at Lungfish, Santa Claus is Comin’ to Motown, More and Sleuth. The Comedy of Aerosmith, a parody which mixes William Shakespeare's The Comedy of Errors with rock band Aerosmith, will also be offered as a bonus production Jan. 6-30, 2005.

The scheduled lineup will feature (subject to change) the following:

  • Golf with Alan Shepard (Sept. 15-Oct. 10) Charles Durning, Jack Klugman, Paul Dooley and Granville Van Dusen star in the Skip Greer staging to open the season. The work finds "four loveable curmudgeons around the golf course" searching for both the meaning of their lives and their tee shots.
  • Wrong Turn at Lungfish (Oct. 20-Nov. 14) Marshall directs the comedy he co-wrote with Lowell Ganz, directed and acted in Off-Broadway in 1993. The new staging will star Hector Elizondo as an elitist college dean who suddenly goes blind and finds a personal bond with a young, sexy girl who is assigned to read to him.
