Tickets are now on sale for The Baker’s Wife opening on Friday, May 31st. The musical, (book by Joseph Stein, music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz), is directed by Rena Gavigan, with musical direction by Sarah Fox.  Performances will take place Friday and Saturday evenings from May 31st through June 2nd at 8pm, with Sunday matinees June 9th and 16th at 5pm.  Seating is cabaret-style, and the audience is invited to bring food and drinks (concessions are also available). Doors open one hour prior to curtain. The June 21st performance will be an alcohol-free evening.

Per Music Theater International, The Baker’s Wife tells the tale of “the bickering residents of a rural village in 1935 Provence, France, [who] have been without a baker for seven weeks. They finally find peace and contentment in the new baker, Aimable, and his radiant young wife, Genevieve. However, when Genevieve is lured away by a handsome young man, the middle-aged baker loses all zest for life and baking. When he refuses to bake, the villagers must work as a team to bring Aimable and Genevieve back together.” MTI goes on to characterize The Baker’s Wife as “A gently bittersweet and offbeat fable of life, love and bread.”

Tickets are $40 and can be purchased at ridgefieldtheaterbarn.org. Discounts are available for seniors, students, and veterans. Sunday, June 9th is a “Pay-What-You-Want” matinee. Visit ridgefieldtheaterbarn.org for more information.
