And the Winner Is tells the comic story of Tyler Johnes, a self-obsessed movie star, who is finally nominated for an Oscar, only to die the night before the awards. Outraged at his bad luck and determined to know if he wins, he bargains with a heavenly gatekeeper to return to earth for the big night. Along the way, he drags his agent, his acting rival, his bombshell girlfriend and his ex-wife into the journey, in a surprising tale of Hollywood, the afterlife, and how we are finally judged.

Written by Mitch Albom, the writer of Tuesdays with Morrie and The Five People You Meet in Heaven, this is a quirky, heartfelt and slightly wicked tale of life, death and sacrifice. Half-sisters inherit a stamp collection that might, or might not, be worth millions. Things take a turn for the worse when one of the sisters seeks out the help of a trio of collectors of shady reputation, each with his own plan of securing the prize for himself.

“Combining the most thrilling aspects of Alfred ----, Raymond Chandler, and David Mamet, Mauritius is a gripping blend of sharp comedy and heart-pounding drama.” Theatreworks.us Wealthy middle-aged couple, Agnes and Tobias, have their complacency shattered when longtime friends, Harry and Edna, appear at their doorstep. Claiming an encroaching, nameless "fear" has forced them from their own home, these neighbors bring a firestorm of doubt, recrimination and ultimately solace, upsetting the "delicate balance" of Agnes and Tobias' household.

Winner of the 1967 Pulitzer Prize and the 1996 Drama Desk Award, Best Revival.

"Powerful...A beautiful play filled with humor and compassion, and touched with poetry...[with] the stature and eloquence of a classic."-New York Daily News. Moises Kaufman, author of The Laramie Project, brings to life poet and author Oscar Wilde and the public trials that ruined him. Wilde, on trial for “gross indecency,” was at the height of his fame as the author of The Importance of Being Earnest and “The Picture of Dorian Gray.” He first treated the trials as if they were theatre, but later found himself fighting for his freedom and his life. Using real quotes and transcripts from the courtroom, Gross Indecency shows a man having to defend himself -- and his art -- against a society's intolerance. Laughing Matter is live comedy show using suggestions from the audience to create a fun evening for the whole family. Tulsa’s longest running comedy show is still going strong!

Heller Theatre is for mature audiences and adults any age are welcome to audition.

Heller Theatre at Henthorne Park is located at 4825 S. Quaker .
