The Glass Menagerie & More Set For Princeton Summer Theater 2009 Season

The Princeton Summer Theater 2009 season will run from June 18 - August 16 in the Hamilton Murray Theater on the beautiful Princeton University campus. This wonderful mainstage season will open with the multiple Tony Award-winning musical farce Urinetown, which runs for three weekends from June 18 - July 5.

We will follow with three shows which run for two weekends each: Tennessee Williams' classic, heartfelt, masterpiece The Glass Menagerie, which runs July 9 - 19; the riotous No Time For Comedy, which was adapted into a blockbuster film featuring Princeton's own Jimmy Stewart, from July 23 - August 2; and funnyman Steve Martin's The Underpants from August 6 - 16. Season subscriptions for mainstage shows give patrons four tickets which they may use however they wish, and all shows are family-friendly.

Princeton Summer Theater 2009 will also once again offer a series of Family Programming, including two children's shows and a series of six weekly children's workshops. The two children's shows are East of the Sun and West of the Moon by Nancy Willard (July 2 - 4 and 9 - 11 at 11am) and Rumpelstiltskin by Mike Kenny (July 23 - 25 and July 30 - August 1 at 11am). All children's shows are $6, and admission is free for children 3 years of age and younger. In the six children's workshops (which run weekly beginning July 3), children age 7 - 12 will work closely with PST company members to explore various aspects of theater. Workshops run weekly on Fridays from 1 - 4pm, and cost $30 per workshop or $135 for the six-workshop series.
