Neither Aladdin nor Ali Baba ever had a day like this! In the span of
twenty-four hours, Hajj the beggar escapes the clutches of a vengeful bandit,
drowns the evil Wazir of Police, catches the eye of the Wazir’s voluptuous
wife, serves as Emir of Baghdad, and sees his daughter wed to the handsome
Caliph. This Arabian fantasy has proven a winner time and again, thanks to its
exotic setting, appealing characters, and wry sense of humor, not to mention a
lush musical score. Packed with mirth, mayhem, and romance, Kismet has enough
adventure and delight to last at least 1001 Arabian nights!

Tony Wendice has married his wife, Margot, for her money and now plans to murder
her for the same reason. He arranges the perfect murder, blackmailing a
scoundrel he used to know into strangling her, while arranging a brilliant alibi
for himself. Unfortunately for him, the murderer dies and the victim survives.
Undaunted, the husband sees his hireling's death as an opportunity to have his
wife convicted for the murder of the man who tried to murder her. Will the evil
plan succeed? A determined police inspector from Scotland Yard and a young man
who is in love with the wife desperately seek the truth, and, if possible,
Margot’s salvation.
Auditions: Sunday June 1 & and Monday June 2, 7:00 PM in
