· Comic Steve Solomon will return with "My Mother's Italian, My Father's Jewish, and I'm Still in Therapy" (Jan. 15-Feb. 7).
· "pluck -- The Titanic Show" (Feb. 12-March 7) features a classically trained, comically inclined string trio and that sinking feeling -- tragedy plus time equals farce.
· Performers from the New York production of "Forbidden Broadway" (March 12- April 5) will come here in a production expanded to fit the Bethesda Theatre's larger stage.
· "Menopause, the Musical" (April 14-May 2). This will be the national touring company of the show spoofing that change-of-life thing.
· "Men Fake Foreplay" (May 27-June 7) will feature comedian and writer Mike Dugan riffing on modern masculinity. Bethesda Theatre's Ray Cullom sees this show and "Menopause" as "newer, more current and relevant" takes on areas explored in last summer's "Defending the Caveman."
· "3 Blonde Moms" (June 17-June 28) will answer "Men Fake Foreplay" with takes on life as a mom, featuring TV and film comediennes Joanie Fagan, Jennifer Rawlings and Beaumont Bacon.
