Penobscot Theatre Co Announces Itinerary For April Trip To NYC

Registration is open for Penobscot Theatre Company's Ninth Annual Weekend Trip to New York City, April 5-7, 2019, and this year, travelers will enjoy great seats at two outstanding Broadway shows:

Tootsie, based on the hilarious 1982 film starring Dustin Hoffman, tells the story of an actor who struggles to find work until an audacious stunt lands him (or her?) the role of a lifetime! The production will feature music and lyrics by David Yazbek (The Band's Visit, The Full Monty and more).

To Kill a Mockingbird, starring Jeff Daniels, is the highly anticipated new stage adaptation of Harper Lee's Pulitzer-winning novel. Adapted by screenwriting legend Aaron Sorkin, this beloved drama deals poignantly with racial injustice in 1930s Alabama and the destruction of childhood innocence.

"We're big Jeff Daniels fans!" said Producing Artistic Director Bari Newport. "He wrote Escanaba in da Moonlight, which was a huge hit for us last season, and I can't wait to see him play Atticus Finch. And Tootsie promises sheer delight!"

Included in the experience are round-trip deluxe motor coach transportation from Bangor; lodging at a boutique hotel in the heart of the theatre district; several meals; and time to explore the city.

The complete weekend package is available for $1,200 per person based on double-occupancy lodging ($1,350 for a single room, $1,100 for a triple, and $1,000 for a quad). Space is limited. To register or obtain more information, call the Box Office at (207) 942-3333 or visit www.penobscottheatre.org.
