BABY IT'S YOU!
Written by Colin Escott and Floyd Mutrux
Directed by Floyd Mutrux

November 6 – December 13, 2009

A world premiere musical!

Wrapped in the sensational songs of the 60s, BABY IT'S YOU! is the new musical about the groundbreaking girl group, The Shirelles and Florence Greenberg, the New Jersey housewife who discovered them. With the help of African-American songwriter, producer Luther Dixon, Florence took on a male dominated industry and revolutionized pop music. Her company, Scepter Records, created the most important songs in the golden era of rock 'n roll, from artists including The Isley Brothers, The Kingsmen, Chuck Jackson and Dionne Warwick.

Furious Theatre Company

Los Angeles Premiere
THE PAIN AND THE ITCH
Written by Bruce Norris
Directed by Dámaso Rodriguez
A Co-Production with The Theatre @ Boston Court

July 25 - August 23, 2009
(Previews July 16-24)

A young daughter in serious need of attention. A ravenous creature possibly prowling the upstairs bedrooms. An average Thanksgiving for one privileged family unravels into an exposé of disastrous choices and less-than-altruistic motives. The Pain and the Itch is a scathing comedy about the politics of class and race, a controversial, painfully human examination of denial and its consequences.

At The Theatre @ Boston Court. For tickets call 1-800-595-4TIX or go to www.furioustheatre.org.
