Centenary Stage Company's Fringe Festival Series Presents THE THINGS THEY CARRIED Image

Centenary Stage Company's Fringe Festival kicks off October 24 through October 27 with The Things They Carried. Based on Tim O'Brien's literary classic, adapted for the stage by Jim Stowell and starring David Sitler, The Things They Carried is a one-person tour-de-force that explores the lines between truth and reality as fact and fiction blur in this unforgettable soldier's journey. This limited engagement will be presented October 24 through October 27 in the Edith Kutz Theatre of the Lackland Performing Arts Center on the campus of Centenary University at 715 Grand Avenue in Hackettstown, NJ. Performance dates and times are Thursday, October 24 at 7:30 pm; Friday, October 25 at 8:00 pm; Saturday, October 26 at 8:00 pm and Sunday, October 27 at 2:00 pm. Tickets range from $25.00 to $27.50 for adults with discounts available for students & children under 12. Tickets are available online at centenarystageco.org or by calling the box office at (908) 979 - 0900.

Based on the literary classic by Tim O'Brien The Things They Carried powerfully recalls the personal journey from his innocent years in rural Minnesota to the jungles of Vietnam. Dramatized by Jim Stowell, the play contains graphic descriptions of war violence, very mild sexual content, and use of explicit language. Audience discretion is advised.
