Bridge Street Theatre closes its bold 2025 Mainstage Season with one of the most beloved plays in modern American theatre: Ernest Thompson’s On Golden Pond, running November 13–23 on BST’s intimate “Priscilla” Mainstage at 44 West Bridge Street, Catskill. Directed by BST Co-Founder John Sowle, this production brings warmth, humor, and quiet reflection to Thompson’s contemporary classic about aging, memory, and forgiveness.
For decades, Norman and Ethel Thayer have spent their summers at a rustic lakeside cabin in Maine. But as Norman’s memory falters and their estranged daughter arrives with her fiancé and his teenage son, long-buried tensions resurface. What follows is a funny, tender, and deeply human story about love withheld, love rediscovered, and the courage it takes to forgive.
Suffused with humor and deep emotional resonance, On Golden Pond closes BST’s 2025 season on a note of grace. Performances run Thurs–Sat at 7:30 pm, Sun at 2:00 pm, with an additional 2:00 pm matinee on Saturday, Nov 22. Tickets are $30, $16 for students. Visit bridgest.org/on-golden-pond for details.
