Eagle Theatre's LOMBARDI to Open 9/20
"Lombardi," a play about the legendary Green Bay Packers coach Vince Lombardi, will make its professional area debut on September 20 at the Eagle Theatre in Hammonton, N.J. The theatre will be one of the first playhouses in America to produce the show since it close on Broadway in 2011, giving regional audiences a rare opportunity to catch this biographical drama.
"It's exciting to be presenting the area professional premiere of this great piece. As a Football fan, and sports fan in general, it's like a dream come true for me," said Ed Corsi, co-artistic director of the theatre.
Set during one week in the 1965 Season, "Lombardi" tells of the coach's efforts to take the Green Bay Packers to the championship. The story develops as a "Look Magazine" reporter follows the prolific coach in the hope of finding out "what makes Lombardi win."
"Lombardi" premieres at the Eagle Theatre on September 20 at 8 p.m., and will run through October 12 with performances on September 21, 26, 27, 28, October 4, 5, 10, 11, 12 at 8 p.m., and September 29 and October 6 at 3 p.m. Tickets are $25 for General Admission and $30 for Front Rows. Tickets can be purchased at www.TheEagleTheatre.com. For more information, please contact the box office at (609) 704-5012.
