What started as a fun idea among friends has grown into a national comedy sensation, and they're coming to Sanford Performing Arts Center for a show at 7 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 17. Created by comedy veteran Carole Montgomery, Women of a Certain Age Comedy shines a spotlight on the hilarious, trailblazing women who aren’t done—and aren’t holding back.

In an industry where women over 50 are often overlooked, WOACA flips the script. These bold, brilliant comedians bring decades of experience, razor-sharp wit, and zero apologies to the stage—proving that funny only gets better with age. From sold-out shows across the country to record-breaking Showtime specials, Women of a Certain Age Comedy is more than a stand-up show — it’s a movement.

Get ready to laugh, cheer, and celebrate the women who paved the way and are still stealing the spotlight.

January 30, 31 & February 6, 7 at 7:30pm + February 1, 8 at 2pm

Now an aspiring young architect in Terre Haute, Indiana, Willum Cubbert has often told his friends about the debt he owes to Rick Steadman, a fellow ex-GI whom he has never met but who saved his life after he was seriously wounded in Vietnam. He has written to Rick to say that, as long as he is alive, “you will have somebody on Earth who will do anything for you” —so Willum is delighted when Rick shows up unexpectedly at his apartment on the night of his thirty-fourth birthday party. But his delight soon fades as it becomes apparent that Rick is a hopeless “nerd” —a bumbling oaf with no social sense, little intelligence and less tact. And Rick stays on and on, his continued presence among Willum and his friends leading to one uproarious incident after another, until the normally placid Willum finds himself contemplating violence—a dire development which, happily, is staved off by the surprising “twist” ending of the play.

The Nerd is presented by arrangement with Broadway Licensing LLC, servicing The Dramatists Play Service Collection.

CATS: Young Actors Edition is a shortened adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s hit musical, one of the longest-running shows in Broadway history. CATS is set amongst a larger-than-life junkyard playground and is alive with purr-fect felines, including Rum Tum Tugger, Mr. Mistoffelees, Macavity, Jennyanydots, Old Deuteronomy, Skimbleshanks and Grizabella. The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year—the night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one, they tell their stories for the amusement of Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life. Cats is centered around the ideas of redemption, acceptance, and community.

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber
based on Old Possum’s Book Of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot

Seamlessly blending illusion, acrobatics, magic, and whimsy, MOMIX sends audiences flying down the rabbit hole in Moses Pendleton’s newest creation, ALICE, set to take the stage at Sanford Performing Arts Center at 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 7.

Inspired by Lewis Carroll’s classic "Alice in Wonderland," the show is a mind-bending adventure, as Alice encounters time-honored characters including the undulating Caterpillar, a lobster quadrille, frenzied White Rabbits, a mad Queen of Hearts, and a variety of other surprises. “I don’t intend to retell the whole Alice story” Pendleton says, “but to use it as a taking off point for invention.”

Filled with visual splendor and startling creative movement, Alice reveals that nothing in MOMIX’s world is as it seems!
