It doesn’t matter if you know the stage version, or the movie version, or don’t know anything about it, just know ARSENIC AND OLD LACE has an easy to follow plot that leads you down a path of hijinks straight to your funny bone.
Aisle Say is really dating himself as he references Laurel and Hardy’s MARCH OF THE WOODEN SOLDIERS. It must have been 1953 on Christmas Day when I first saw it on our black and white Mortorola. I still believed. I was mesmerized. Each Christmas Day for many years I looked forward to it. That movie made it difficult to disbelieve.
It’s the same thinking every year. You tell yourself, this year the holidays will be different. But, the days fly by and before you know it – BAM! – Thanksgiving is two days away and Christmas is just around the corner. You start to get a little panicked. So much to do, so little time. It’s very easy to become a Grinch. Hang on! What you really need is to slow down and take time for yourself. Have a little fun. And it just so happens, there’s a little dinner theater in Arden, Delaware full of elves just waiting to serve up a platter full of holiday cheer just for you.

There is no one in the tri-state region with more live theater experience than Bob Kelly, Artistic Director at Candlelight Dinner Theatre. Founded in 1969 by John and Lena O'Toole and Julian and Annabelle Borris, it quickly became a nexus for hundreds of aspiring actors, where all were inspired to self-invent and where ambition was oxygen.
In 2016, New Theatre was the proud recipient of the ACON Honour Award for Arts & Entertainment, in recognition of our 25-year commitment to LGBTQI content, including our annual production for the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras, and for acknowledging diverse sexualities and genders as an important demographic within the theatre's community and audience.
Pony World's world premiere 'American Archipelago' is a collaborative examination of American culture and values. Written by Holly Arsenault, Kelleen C. Blanchard, Tre Calhoun, Vincent Delaney, Brendan Healy, Maggie Lee, Sara Porkalob, and Seayoung Yim, 'American Archipelago' feels more like an incubator than a melting pot. Eight folks from different communities live side-by-side in a semi-symbolic neighborhood called 'The United States of America.' While this campy fever-dream succeeds as a black comedy, what's missing from this conceptual piece is a fresh concept.
Ah, we all love rom coms. But decades prior to the term becoming part of contemporary lexicon…. there was BAREFOOT IN THE PARK. Those of a certain baby boomer age all know Robert Redford and Jane Fonda were in the movie. However, we must stretch back even farther to see that the Sundance Kid and Elizabeth Ashley premiered the show on Broadway in (cough) 1963.
