Photo Flash: New Jersey Repertory Company Presents FERN HILL

NJ Rep located at 179 Broadway in Long Branch, is proud to present the world premiere of Michael Tucker's Fern Hill, August 9 through September 9. Fern Hill is helmed by Australian director, Nadia Tass, and stars Jill Eikenberry (L.A. Law, Moonchildren), John Glover (Smallville, Waiting for Godot), Dee Hoty (Bright Star, Mamma Mia!), Jodi Long (Sullivan and Son, Flower Drum Song), Tom McGowan (Frasier, Wicked, Chicago), and David Rasche (Speed-the-Plow, Veep, Burn After Reading).

Three couples in their golden years are gathered at Sunny and Jer's farmhouse to celebrate milestone birthdays that span three decades. The foundation of their long friendship is honesty and support - as well as a commitment to the enjoyment of food, wine, and laughter. They're so close that Sunny suggests they all move in together - to live and work and assist one another as they grow older. Their companionship is put to the test, however, when a betrayal is discovered. The bonds of loyalty and truth are explored in this mature comedy.

Performances are Thursdays, Fridays at 8pm; Saturdays at 3pm and 8pm; Sundays at 2pm. Added performances: Sunday 8/19 at 7:00, Wednesday 8/29 at 8:00, Tuesday 9/4 at 8:00, Wednesday 9/5 at 8:00, Sunday 9/9 at 7:00. For tickets call 732-229-3166 or visit njrep.org for online ticketing.
