Albert Lea Community Theatre (ACT) has announced its 2015–2016 season.

ACT will open its 51st season with “Calendar Girls,” written by Tim Firth, from Oct. 8-17. This comedy is an uplifting, feel-good story of friendship, ingenuity and triumph. This play is based on an inspiring true story from England and adapted from the Golden Globe-nominated motion picture. Some of the proceeds from this play will be donated to the Cancer Center at Mayo Clinic Health System in Albert Lea.

“Don’t Hug Me, I’m Pregnant,” written by Phil Olson with music by Paul Olson, will run Feb. 11-20, 2016. A member of the smash hit musical comedy series “Don’t Hug Me,” this show takes place in Bunyan Bay, Minnesota, in a little bar called “The Bunyan” owned by Clara and Gunner Johnson.

“The Kitchen Witches,” written by Caroline Smith, will be performed May 5-14, 2016. This comedy features main characters Isobel Lomax and Dolly Biddle, two middle-aged cable-access cooking show hosts who have hated each other for 30 years. When circumstances put them together on a TV show called “The Kitchen Witches,” the insults are flung harder than the food.

For its final production ACT will present “The Wizard of Oz,” written by L. Frank Baum with music and lyrics by Harold Allen and E.Y. Harburg, July 14-July 23, 2016. The classical musical takes you on a journey from Kansas to the Land of Oz. The audience will join Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man and Cowardly Lion as they follow the yellow brick road to the Emerald City to meet the Wizard.
