Stage 212 in La Salle announces 2024 season

Stage 212 in La Salle announced its 2024 season, saying it will explore the many facets of the human experience via a lineup of familiar and beloved shows.

Winter opens with Frank Wildhorn’s Tony-nominated musical “Bonnie & Clyde,” a story of love, adventure and crime, directed by Samantha Farb.

For spring, the women may be mostly in his head, but the laughs belong to the audience in “Jake’s Women,” Neil Simon’s hilarious and occasionally touching comedy about modern relationships, directed by Larry Kelsey.

Summer brings the dazzling musical “Anastasia,” from Tony winners Terrence McNally, Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, recounting the tale of a brave young Russian woman who sets out to uncover the mystery of her past, directed by Reid Tomasson.

Anxiety and tension suffuse the atmosphere of the fall offering “Misery,” William Goldman’s riveting adaptation of the classic Stephen King thriller, directed by Joey Santos.
