Opening Night is June 6 at 8pm.

In this Broadway style musical, Tolkein fans will see all their favorite characters from the movies with one big change - they're funny. This hilarious send-up features twelve original songs, from the over-the-top opening number with barefooted tap-dancing Hobbits, to an elf-on-human 80's power ballad with a live guitar solo performed by the rightful heir of Gondor.

Fellowship! won 2005 Musical of the Year and Best Comedy Ensemble at the LA Weekly Awards. The show was recognized by many papers in and around the LA area with such honors as Critic's Pick, Best Bet, and Pick of the Week.
