MARVELOUS WONDERETTES Closes 8/15 at Shadowland Theatre, RED HERRING Up Next

Moving into its 26th season, Shadowland Theatre follows its record-breaking 25th anniversary season with five new productions, including GUEST ARTIST,  the comic drama written by actor Jeff Daniels and stars Academy Award nominee John Astin. The season begins June 4 and will run until October 3rd.

From July 23 to August 15, Shadowland will produce the regional premiere of THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES, the Off-Broadway show featuring musical hits of the 50s and 60s. This candy-colored, nonstop, musical blast from the past features four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline skirts and voices to match. Written and created by Roger Dean with musical direction by Philip Rainbow Hale, the show will be directed by Michael LaFleur.

Michael Hollinger's RED HERRING from August 20 to September 12. Directed by Brendan Burke, Shadowland's producing artistic director, the theatre noir farce mixes three love stories, Cold War paranoia and a nuclear espionage plot. It's 1952, intrigue and love are in the Cold War air, Senator Joe McCarthy's daughter is dating a Soviet spy, a dead body wreaks havoc in Boston harbor and a detective needs to solve the mystery or lose a honeymoon in Havana.

From September 17 to October 3, Shadowland wraps up the season with a new play, YANKEE TAVERN, by Steven Dietz, winner of the 2007 Edgar Allen Poe Award for best mystery adaptation. A son inherits his father's bar, The Yankee Tavern, a relic in the shadow of Ground Zero. A mysterious stranger visits, outlandish theories become plausible and nothing is as it seems. It is directed by Brendan Burke.
