Lou DiPietro And Louis Josephson's IT'S NEVER TOO LATE to Have World Premiere at Kelsey Theatre

The power of hope, reinvention, and second chances will take the stage when Theater To Go presents the world premiere, limited engagement of the new Lou DiPietro musical "It's Never Too Late," April 3-12, at the Kelsey Theatre on the Mercer County Community College West Windsor Campus.

Written by Hightstown, N.J., resident Lou DiPietro with music by West Windsor, N.J., native Louis Josephson (currently of New York City), "It's Never Too Late" is a poignant and uplifting new musical that tells the story of the ripple effect that a brief encounter between two former lovers has on the lives of seven interconnected characters. Each struggles to stay afloat while confronting the unexpected turns their lives have taken. With a rich tapestry of characters and a moving, melodic score, the musical invites audiences to embrace change and rediscover their authentic selves-at any age.

DiPietro began writing this play at the age of 90 and now, at 95, is excited to share his work with an audience.

"I'm thrilled to bring this musical to life in such a dynamic way," said DiPietro. "The themes of resilience and second chances resonate deeply with so many people, and I believe this show will inspire everyone who experiences it."

The professional cast consists of actors from the tri state area, including Phil Zipkin of New Hope, Pa.; Libby Kane of Doylestown, Pa.; Jim Morris, Jim Petro and Jennifer Fischer, all of Hamilton, N.J; Charlotte Caldejon of Lawrenceville, N.J.; Reba Holley of Pennington, N.J.; and Neil Devlin, Cassaundra Reed and Brenna Peerbolt, all of New York City.
