Georgiana and Kitty: Christmas at Pemberley

By Lauren Gunderson & Margot Melcon

Directed by Jessica Jaye

Back by popular demand! The final installment of the Christmas at Pemberley series follows two close friends: Mr. Darcy’s younger sister, Georgiana, and the youngest Bennet sister, Kitty. It is Christmastime at Pemberley and the pair impatiently await the imminent arrival of Henry Grey, Georgiana’s shy, secret correspondent and love interest. When Henry enters a family holiday in full force and is met by the unwelcoming presence of Mr. Darcy, Georgiana fears her chance at love will be lost forever. But somehow, love always finds a way!

Main Street has previously produced all 3 plays in the trilogy, including Miss Bennet and The Wickhams, all of which became hits and holiday favorites for many families across Houston and beyond.

The Woman in Black

Houston Press Review

BroadwayWorld Houston Review

Houston Press Interview with
Actor Danny Hayes

The Woman in Black

By Stephen Mallatratt
Based on the novel by Susan Hill
 

“It was nine-thirty on a Christmas Eve…” Arthur Kipps is obsessed with a curse he believes has been cast over him and his family by the specter of a “Woman in Black,” for it is believed that anyone who sees her will die. He hires a skeptical young actor to help him tell his terrifying story to exorcise the fear that grips his soul. Things begin innocently enough, but as they reach further into Arthur’s darkest memories, they find themselves caught up in a world of eerie marshes and moaning winds…

Susan Hill’s acclaimed ghost story is alive and well in this spine-tingler of a play. But it’s more than that. It’s a story of facing your past, reckoning with old and new pain, grieving what has been lost – and finding hope and a way forward.

It is also a love letter to the theater, as our director Philip Hays so aptly noted. It exemplifies just what live theater can do – with a rich story, talented artists, and the robust imaginations of the audience, we can be transported to another world. When you see The Woman in Black, you’ll believe you’re on the eerie moor, on the horse and cart traveling, in the room with a beloved dog. You’ll walk the journey with both characters as they face their past and present.

You will feel with them.

That’s the power of good storytelling. That’s the power of theater.

The Best of Everything

Regional Premiere
Adapted by Julie Kramer
Based on the book by Rona Jaffe

Imagine “Madmen” meets “Sex and the City!” The Best of Everything is the new adaptation of Rona Jaffe’s 1958 bestseller about ambitious secretaries in the big city. These girls want thrilling careers and grand adventures—and husbands and children too, in due time. Today we call that “having it all.” These gals call it “the best of everything.” And wisely enough, they’re not sure it’s possible.

“The play is brilliantly funny, but it has quite a few things to say about 2023.  Main Street Theater is keeping Rona Jaffe’s conversation alive with this production…this show certainly lives up to the title in acting, technical aspects, and strong direction.  It’s a fun evening that will make you think.” — Read the full BroadwayWorld Houston review

MATINEE ADDED SUNDAY, JANUARY 29, 2023

Shakespeare’s classic is performed entirely without words as the ultimate power couple is transformed through their dark and fateful choices in this hilarious, high-speed romp of object theatre, dance, and pure madness. For ages 13+

MST Artistic Director Rebecca Greene Udden first saw La Fille Du Laitier’s Macbeth Muet in New York several years ago and was captivated by their innovation and ingenuity. “You’ve just never seen anything quite like it!” says Udden. “And the show is hilarious!” MST brought the show to Houston in 2018 and is excited to bring La Fille Du Laitier back in 2023.

“Frenetic and fun and ingenious, Macbeth Muet is killer theatre.” – CBC News
“This is a display of sheer theatrical invention, certainly a must-see…” – Winnipeg Free Press
“thoroughly entertaining…” – On Stage Ottawa
“Macbeth Muet is one of the most original, clever, funny, intense, and just bloody entertaining (pun intended) shows I’ve seen in years.” – Houston Press
