Stage One, Inc. Announces 2021-2022 Season at the Janesville Performing Arts Center

Janesville Performing Arts Center • 408 S Main St, Janesville, WI.

Tickets: Adults – $16 • Students – $10

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, directed by Michael Stalsberg
December 3, 10, & 11 at 7:30 PM • 4, 5, & 12 at 2 PM

The Story: As miserly old Ebenezer Scrooge falls asleep in his dreary home on Christmas Eve, three ghosts appear, each revealing to Scrooge the wrong doings of his life and what will happen if he continues in his evil ways. He is racked with fear and remorse and sets out on Christmas Day to bless with his newfound generosity all those whom he has neglected and abused.

The Pillowman by Martin McDonagh, directed by Michael Stalsberg
March 11, 12, 13, 18, & 19 at 7:30 PM • 13 & 20 at 2 PM

The Story: With echoes of Stoppard, Kafka, and the Brothers Grimm, THE PILLOWMAN centers on a writer in an unnamed totalitarian state who is being interrogated about the gruesome content of his short stories and their similarities to a series of child murders. The result is an urgent work of theatrical bravura and an unflinching examination of the very nature and purpose of art.
