12 Angry Jurors

Jun 1, 2, 3, 8, 9, 10 at 7:30PM
Jun 4, 11 at 2:00PM
In the PCA Studio Theater

Written by Sherman L. Sergel and Reginald Rose
Directed by Bill Krauss

A 16-year-old has just stood trial for the fatal stabbing of his father. It looks like an open-and-shut case—until one of the jurors begins opening the others' eyes to the facts. "This is a remarkable thing about democracy," says the foreign-born juror, "that we are notified by mail to come down to this place—and decide on the guilt or innocence of a person; of a man or woman we have not known before. We have nothing to gain or lose by our verdict. We should not make it a personal thing." But personal it is, with each juror revealing his or her own character as the various testimonies are re-examined, the murder is re-enacted, and a new murder threat is born before their eyes!

County Fair: A Country Jukebox Musical

June 30, July 1, 7, 8 at 7:30pm
July 1, 2, 8, 9 at 2:00pm
In the PCA Cabaret

Written by Matt Webster & Taylor Ferrera
Directed by Scott Neese

After the death of their father, two sisters, Claudia and DJ Stratford, return home to deal with their inheritance: a massive and beloved county fair in rural Georgia. Thinking that this could be the cash windfall that they desperately seek, the sisters plan to sell off the fair land to the highest bidder, then high tail it back to civilization. But when Claudia starts to fall in love with the fair, the townsfolk, and an over-apologetic board member, her heart leads her away from her sister and down a path she’s unprepared for. Needing the money to pay off a large, secret gambling debt, DJ must do whatever it takes to sell the fair – even if that means sabotaging her sister’s new romantic relationship. Betrayals, imposters, and mistaken identity lead to sister battling sister in a winner-take-all Messina County Dixie Derby competition to save the fair. Inspired by Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing and full of all your favorite country hits like “Chicken Fried,” “Hey Good Lookin’,” “The House That Built Me,” “Thank God I’m a Country Boy” and so many others, County Fair is a new musical comedy about sisters, community, and being proud of where you come from.

Summer Youth Programming 2023

Creative Learning in all areas of the Arts!

We have something for all ages at Suze's PCA, and our summer programming is no exception!

Suze’s PCA believes that all youth should have equitable access to quality arts experiences, which was one of the major drivers of our campus expansion. Now that the new facilities are open, we are poised to fully meet the Suze’s PCA mission as a full-service arts center by providing youth arts experiences in theater, ceramics and puppetry.
