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.
