The Omaha Community Playhouse Presents ON GOLDEN POND, 1/20-2/12

The Omaha Community Playhouse (OCP) presents ON GOLDEN POND January 20–February 12, 2012.

Full of warm humor and heart, this touching tale follows a couple in their golden years at their summer home on Golden Pond in Maine. Norman Thayer, an irascible retired schoolteacher, and his wife Ethel, who has a love for life, take us on a soul-stirring journey filled with trials of growing older, finding peace in old grudges and making unexpected friends who show them how to live again. On Golden Pond is an enriching masterpiece!
