Attic Ensemble, theater at Barrow Mansion: "Next Fall"

Geoffrey Nauffts’ NEXT FALL takes a witty and provocative look at faith, commitment and unconditional love. While the play’s central story focuses on the five-year relationship between Adam and Luke, NEXT FALL goes beyond a typical love story. This timely and compelling new American play forces us all to examine what it means to “believe” and what it might cost us not to.

The Attic Ensemble is located in The Barrow Mansion, 83 Wayne Street. Opening night is  November 17th, at 7:00 p.m.

Mrs. Bob Cratchit's Wild Christmas Binge, play at St. Peters college

 at the Roy Irving theater (St. Peters campus Montgomery x JFK Blvd)
Saint Peter's College will be performing a play, "Mrs. Bob Cratchit's Wild Christmas Binge" from tomorrow (Thursday) night at until Saturday night! Every show is at 7PM, with two Saturday shows, one at 2PM and one at 7PM.The show is a comedy guaranteed to make people of all ages laugh. And best of alll, it's free! It will be showing at the Roy Irving Theatre at Saint Peter's College on Montgomery Avenue and JFK Boulevard in Jersey City.

Description:
A sassy ghost once again attempts to shake Scrooge from his holiday humbug, but the whole family-friendly affair is deliciously derailed by Mrs. Cratchit’s drunken insistence on stepping out of her miserable, treacly role. Morals are subverted, starving yet plucky children sing carols, and somebody’s goose is cooked as Durang lovingly skewers A Christmas Carol, It’s a Wonderful Life, and many more to create a brand-new, cracked Christmas classic.

Private eyes, a play, J City theater

J CITY Theater announces the opening of their new production: Private Eyes by
Steven Dietz.

Private Eyes is a “relationship thriller” - a comedy of suspicion in which
nothing is quite what it seems.  Matthew’s wife is having an affair with Adrian,
a British theater director.  Or perhaps the affair is part of the play being
rehearsed.  Or perhaps Matthew has imagined all of it simply to have something
to report to Frank, his therapist.  The audience bares witness to the
characters’ delicious deceptions and are ultimately the detectives - the real
private eyes, who search for clues to Dietz’s laugh out loud comedy of surprise
and misdirection. 


With dialogue that snaps and crackles with biting humor, Dietz explores
characters who continually try to tell the truth - but in the end learn the
value of “the comforting white lie”.   Secrecy and deception hide the twin
fevers of passion and suspicion.  To borrow a phrase, Private Eyes is a “riddle
wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma”. 
J City Theater:  Private Eyes,  by Steven Dietz

Village Voice
