OUR 49th SEASON Continues!
APRIL 18 - MAY 11
Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 pm
Sundays at 2:00 pm


In a New England town four mentally  handicapped young men are living in a  communal residence. The story of their daily  life is told through the perspective of Jack,  the increasingly “burned out” social worker  who teaches and looks after them. Filed with  humor, the play is also marked by  compassion and understanding. It touchingly  communicates that these four men are like  the rest of us who want to love and be loved  and find some meaning and purpose in the
too brief time we are allotted on earth.

He has delighted  children for years with tales such as “The Ugly Duckling”,  “Thumbelina” and “The Little Mermaid”.  We proudly present two of  his other famous stories – “The Snow Queen” and “The Red Shoes”. In  these gentle adaptations, the stories will end with a happily ever after
