OGDEN

THE CHRISTIANS

Good Company Theatre, 2404 Wall Ave., Ogden

Twenty years ago, Pastor Paul’s church was nothing more than a modest storefront. Now he presides over a congregation of thousands, with classrooms for Sunday School, a coffee shop in the lobby, and a baptismal font as big as a swimming pool. Today should be a day of celebration. But Paul is about to preach a sermon that will shake the foundations of his church’s belief. A big-little play about faith in America — and the trouble with changing your mind.

Not recommended for audience members younger than 10.

PLAZA SUITE

Heritage Theatre, 2505 S. Highway 89, Perry

Neil Simon’s classic play “Plaza Suite” answers the age-old question: What if these walls could talk? Wonder no longer, and pull up a chair as a simple hotel room becomes so much more.
