On Golden Pond
A Comedy by Ernest Thompson
September 19 - October 5, 2008

A story of love that lasts and of love rediscovered during another summer on Golden Pond. Ernest Thompson's "work of rare simplicity and beauty [is] a memorable theatrical experience..." - Variety



Cinderella
Musical by Rodgers and Hammerstein
November 7 - 23, 2008

Dreams do come true in this enchanting fairy tale for all ages. You'll leave the theatre humming Rodgers and Hammerstein's marvelous melodies in this "bright family entertainment..." - New York Times.



Everybody Loves Opal
A comedy by John Patrick
February 13 - March 1, 2009

Opal, with her kindness and faith in the goodness of human nature, survives the machinations of an inept trio of con artists. Their elaborate schemes to murder her are terrific comedy. But the real clincher comes at the end!



Romeo and Juliet
A Drama by William Shakespeare
March 20 - April 5, 2009

One of his most popular romantic tragedies, Shakespeare wrote this classic tale of romance and tragedy early in his career. The first performance of Romeo and Juliet took place in 1594, when the playhouses reopened for the first time after a sustained outbreak of the plague had forced the authorities to close all the playhouses in London in January 1593. During this period, over 10,000 people in London alone died from the disease. Shakespeare emphasizes the relevance of the plague for his audience by using it in Romeo and Juliet to prevent Friar Laurence’s message from reaching Romeo in Mantua.

This most famous love story in English literature touches the hearts of young and old. Through circumstance and character, love is "star-cross'd"; but the beauty of it lives on.



Nunsense
A musical comedy with book, music
and lyrics by Dan Goggin

May 1 - 17, 2009

The Little Sisters of Hoboken, in dire need of funds, plan a variety show, featuring themselves. You'll love these charmers as they sing, dance and reveal comic surprises.
