On Thursday, September 8th, I had the pleasure of seeing THE EXONERATED at The Ridgefield Theater Barn, in Ridgefield, CT.  This show is amazing, based on true stories, and sends some deeply impacting messages that touch the emotions to the core, in a good way. It opens awareness in the minds of the audience, about things not always being as they seem, and people not always being who they may appear to be.

TheatreWorks New Milford will premiere Ira Levin's thriller, Deathtrap, directed by Robin Frome and featuring Dandy Barrett, Timothy Huber, Lynn Nissenbaum, Jeff Rossman,, and Jeffry Bukowski.

On Friday, April 8, The Town Players of New Canaan will open Noël Coward’s delightful comedy, HAY FEVER at the Powerhouse Theatre in Waveny Park as its next mainstage show for 2022. The curtain rises at 8:00 p.m. for a three week run. The production is directed by Deborah Burke and produced by Sheila Toner. 

There are no weighty messages here. No high drama. Just fun stuff, listening to a couple of 60ish female actors, virtually joined at the hip, tease and tolerate each other with all manner of jokey repartee, acid-laced with rapier ripostes that cut to the quick.

On Saturday, February 12, I had the pleasure of seeing THE DIVAS at the Ridgefield Theater Barn, in Ridgefield, CT.  This story, written by Jack Neary, is a comedic series of seven different one act plays that depict the lives of fictional divas Bethel and Clarice, two middle-aged stage actresses whose dynamics with each other define the term “frenemies,” as they are constantly competing for the same roles, in auditions, yet continue to interact with each other.  Directed by Michael Ferrara and Paulette Layton, this talented cast features Nancy Sinacori as Bethel and Deborah Connelly as Clarice, both of whom truly bring their characters to life!

After a necessary postponement, the Theater Barn will be presenting the world premiere of The Divas, a compilation of one-act plays by Jack Neary. Directed by Michael Ferrara and Paulette Layton, The Divas will be presented Friday and Saturday evenings at 8 pm, February 4th through the 26th, with 2 pm matinees on Sunday, February 13th & 20th.

On September 20th, TheatreWorks New Milford will open Agatha Christie's theatrical masterpiece, Witness for the Prosecution.

In the airless unfunny farm over which dour Nurse Ratched presides, McMurphy appears to foment anarchy. Yet, given the oppressive circumstances, the only thing subversive in his intention is to restore a sense of dignity and free will to those he views as the downtrodden -- captives of a rigged system that is oblivious to their best interests.
