April’s the most glamorous month for the D.C. theater community, as it marks the celebration of the Helen Hayes Awards, our city’s answer to the Tonys. Any favorites to win this year? In the meantime, check out some potential 2009 Tony winners playing this month throughout Washington.

Kander & Ebb fever continues over at Signature, as it produces the little-seen production The Happy Time (April 1).

Round House Theater in Bethesda will take on the gruesome tale we all read as kids, Lord of the Flies (April 2).

Fans of Wicked, Pippin, and, well, Pocahantas will be interested in popping over to MetroStage to check out The Stephen Schwartz Project (April 10).

And by the way, if you enjoy things like musical versions of Carrie, you might want to head over to Landless Theater’s Web site; the group through this weekend is having its audience vote on which “So Bad It’s Good” play it will produce this summer.
