PETE 'N' KEELY

Book by James Hindman

Music by Patrick Brady

Lyrics by Mark Waldrop

Directed by Mark Waldrop

Dates TBA*

Subscriber Exclusive!

Staged as a live taping of a 1968 television special that reunites a divorced singing duo, this kitschy spoof had New York critics singing its praises. As Pete and Keely stroll down memory lane reprising songs from their days of stardom, they take "unscripted" swipes at each other that dredge up hilarious moments from their turbulent past. This charming musical features unforgettable renditions of the era's popular favorites such as "Fever," "Bésame Mucho," and "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," as well as original songs in the spirit of the times. Mark Waldrop (When Pigs Fly, Bette Midler's Divine Miss Millennium Tour, Paper Mill's Gypsy and Little Shop of Horrors) directs.

BEEHIVE: THE '60S MUSICAL

Created by Larry Gallagher

Directed & Choreographed by JoAnn M. Hunter

Dates TBA*

Subscriber Exclusive!

Big hairdos and even bigger voices command the stage in this tuneful tribute to women who rock-the girl groups that made their mark on the music of the '60s. Featuring such hits as "My Boyfriend's Back," "Son of a Preacher Man," and "(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman," Beehive chronicles the dramatic transformations of a volatile decade, told from the perspective of six young women who live through it. JoAnn M. Hunter (Broadway's School of Rock, Paper Mill's Unmasked and Cinderella) directs and choreographs.

*Performance dates for Pete 'n' Keely and Beehive are to be announced, in the hopes that limited audiences (subscribers only) may be invited to safely return to the theater by late spring or summer 2021.

Note: A livestream option will be available for all shows this season and may become the only possibility if reconvening live audiences is not feasible.

Program and artists are subject to change.

Paper Mill's 2020-2021 season will be an exclusive subscriber season and all 7 events are available now for $275 per person. Visit www.PaperMill.org and sign up for all we have to offer.
