Before Cabaret<\/em>, before Chicago<\/em>, the legendary musical theater duo Kander and Ebb created Flora the Red Menace. <\/em>\u00a0Flora Meszaros is a headstrong individualist taking the world on by storm.\u00a0 As an up-and-coming fashion designer in the 1930\u2019s, Flora leads<\/sub> an artists\u2019 cooperative of bohemian artists struggling to find work during the Great Depression. She falls in love with a quirky and charming organizer for the communist party who enlists her to unionize her co-workers. With a healthy dose of humor and skepticism, this musical pokes a fun at all those who take themselves and their causes too seriously.\u00a0 Filled with show stopping numbers and delightful lyrics, Flora the Red Menace<\/em> promises to be a unique and exciting version of this rarely produced gem.<\/p>\n Directed by Maria Vail
\nMusic Director \u2013 Lisa Lutter<\/p>\n
