The date is Sunday, January 31 at 3:00p.m. Although ELTC performs mostly in Cape May, NJ, the Hodes are longtime friends of the company, and artistic director Gayle Stahlhuth wrote a two-person play just for them. The musical titled 'The O'Tooles Tonight,' premiered in Cape May in 2000 under Stahlhuth's direction, receiving excellent reviews, including in 'The Newark Star-Ledger.'
