ON TIME Will Come to the Villagers Theatre in May
Deke Stoklosa and Matthew Swanson star in Wesley Cappiello's work, directed by Darren Nye
ON TIME will open May 8th 2026 as part of the New Work Series in the black box at Villagers Theatre in Somerset, NJ. Written by Wesley Cappiello and Directed by Darren Nye.
This is a story about fate. About survival. About the courage to love anyway. Deke Stoklosa and Matthew Swanson star in this gay epic as two actors bringing to life ten characters in a story spanning 160 years. It follows five couples, weaving together moments of love, heartbreak, and survival across centuries.
Through a series of intimate encounters-some fleeting, some life-altering-the play explores how time bends, repeats, and reshapes the course of human lives. From the clandestine desires of two coworkers in Victorian England to the modern-day uncertainty of fiancés on the brink of matrimony in the American South. Love, loss and fate intertwine in this sweeping, intimate exploration of human connection while illuminating the barriers history has long placed on queer love.
On Time explores how history echoes through us, and how love persists in spite of it.
Time folds, lives intersect, history repeats...and rewrites itself.
The show runs May 8-17th, 2026. Performances are Friday and Saturdays at 7:30 pm and Sundays at 2:00 pm.
