The Hunting of the Snark

The Hunting of the Snark

Presented by Lincoln Theatre Program
SEPTEMBER 17 - 19, 2026
On sale 08/10

The impossible voyage of an improbable crew to hunt an imaginary creature comes magically to life in this sparkling musical comedy for ages 4 to 94. Step into the mind of Alice in Wonderland creator Lewis Carroll with a brand-new, ultra-modern adaptation of his beloved classic poem.

Join a riotous, ragtag gang—including the Banker, the Boy, the Butcher, the Baker, the Bellman, and the knitting Beaver—as they set sail to catch the mythical Snark. Along the way, they encounter fantastical puppets, the sly Bandersnatch, the Jub Jub bird, and the dastardly Boojum. Can a Snark be caught with soap? Will the Baker ever remember his name? Does anyone actually know what a Snark looks like?

Performed by a company of high-energy actors and packed with daft humor, fast-paced action, and an award-winning soundtrack of witty songs, The Hunting of the Snark is pure joy for the whole family.

Something Rotten

Something Rotten

Presented by Lincoln Theatre Program
NOVEMBER 12 - 21, 2026
On sale 08/10

Welcome to the Renaissance! Hailed by Time Out New York as "the funniest musical comedy in at least 400 years," Something Rotten! is an outrageous, crowd-pleasing farce that mashes up 16th-century Shakespeare with 21st-century Broadway.

Set in the 1590s, desperate playwright brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are tired of being stuck in the shadow of that Renaissance rock star known as "The Bard." When a local soothsayer predicts that the future of theater involves singing, dancing, and acting all at once, the brothers set out to write the world’s very first musical. But amidst the opening-night madness, they learn that true success means staying true to "thine own self."

Packed with show-stopping numbers, high-energy dance routines, and a hilarious cast of characters, this history-twisting production is pure theatrical magic. Don't miss it on the LHS stage!

Antigone

Antigone

Presented by Lincoln Theatre Program
JANUARY 28 - 30, 2027
On sale 08/10

"All men make mistakes, but a good man yields when he knows his course is wrong, and repairs the evil. The only crime is pride."

Polyneices and Eteocles, two brothers leading opposite sides in Thebes' civil war, have both been killed in battle. Creon, the new ruler of Thebes, has declared that Eteocles will be honored and Polyneices disgraced. Antigone and Ismene are the sisters of the dead brothers, and they are now the last children of the ill-fated Oedipus. Antigone wants to bury Polyneices' body, in defiance of Creon's edict. Ismene warns her of the death penalty, yet Antigone proceeds with her plan to uphold her familial duty towards her brother and moral obligation to God. Antigone argues unflinchingly with Creon about the morality of the edict and the morality of her actions and gets punished eventually for her defiance.
