Every year, Summer Stock Austin presents repertory productions of several musicals, classic and new, starring and crewed by the best and brightest of Texas’ young performers from throughout the state’s high schools and colleges. This summer, the series includes “Annie Get Your Gun,” a charming production that introduces a bright new star to the Austin stage, running through Aug. 12 at the Long Center.

“The Addams Family” has some phenomenal performances, though. Benjamin Roberts, as Gomez, is charming and witty in the harried, sitcom-esque role of the family patriarch, while Keaton Brandt is delightfully wacky as the masochistic Pugsley. David Peña is a pitch-perfect Fester (the amorphously asexual uncle with a big heart who serves as a partial narrator) and can switch from gags to earnestness with lightning quickness.

Loosely based on the Hans Christian Anderson story of the same name (which brought toys to life a century and a half before Pixar did so), “The Steadfast Tin Soldier” tells the story of Lucas, a tin soldier in love with a ballerina princess, and Zoey, a rag-doll who chafes against being at the bottom rung of the toys’ caste system simply because of the material she is made out of. Together, the two embark on a quest out of the workshop where they were created, with Lucas looking for a cure to the disease that threatens to kill the princess and Zoey searching for a place where she will be valued and loved.

Summer Stock Austin’s family musical “Tortoise and Hare” is really fun. You’ll be rocking to the reggae, calypso, and rap beats of the music and lyrics by Allen Robertson, of the Biscuit Brothers. Robertson and Damon Brown wrote the book, and Robertson directs the show.
