Americana Theatre Company will present THE ADDAMS FAMILY musical at its Plymouth, MA venue, bringing the dark comedy to the region's professional stage.

The York Theatre will present developmental readings of two new works: THE HO-HO-HO-LIDAY SHOW, a comedy revue by Alice Scovell, and ORDINARY GIRLS, a play with music set in Dutch wartime. Both are by invitation only.

As BTG's Artistic Director, CEO Kate Maguire stated: 'Through moments of joy, heartbreak, humor and healing, JOHN & JEN explores the enduring connections between siblings, parents and children- the people who remain part of us across a lifetime.  With Andrew Lippa's moving score and a story filled with tenderness and truth, this production invites us to reflect on the love we carry, the memories that define us and the resilience that helps us move forward.  Those that choose to attend JOHN AND JEN on the Larry Vaber Stage at Berkshire Theatre Group's Unicorn Theatre in Stockbridge where this production of JOHN AND JEN runs through June 7, will experience a well-crafted, well executed piece of contemporary musical theatre.
