Actually, if you go a few years back it's four. I loved WaterTower Theatre's holiday show, Beautiful Star, which is essentially a modern-dress adaptation of three stories from Genesis and the Christmas tale, as told in the York cycle of mystery plays from medieval England. Kevin Moriarty is in the process of doing his own (non-holiday) adaptation of the first several of these, creation through Noah, for Dallas Theater Center's upcoming In the Beginning. Now today I got a small press release from Fort Worth's Stolen Shakespeare Guild about it's holiday offering, From the Beginning to the Nativity, which sounds in outline very like Beautiful Star -- with some additional material. It opens Friday. I'll reproduce the performance information after the break. Interestingly, Jerry Russell reminded me when I was at The Code of the Woosters last week that Stage West did a similar adaptation a few seasons ago.

This weekend Pegasus Theatre boss Kurt Kleimann sent around a letter saying there would production of one of his black-and-white mystery-comedies this year. (For the last few seasons, Pegasus has done a new one at Richardson's Eisemann Center in January.) He consoles fans with the news that he is in negotiation to produce a state-wide tour of a black-and-white show to begin in the Dallas area sometime next year.
