Theresa Rebeck's "The Understudy" takes the Stage on June 23rd! Join us on June 26 for a 'Denim & Diamonds' fundraiser!

The closing week of Say Goodnight, Gracie can only mean one thing: next week is the official opening night for The Understudy!

The Understudy by Theresa Rebeck is the story of an action hero from feature films making his Broadway debut in a play by Franz Kafka.  His understudy arrives for a rehearsal and it turns out the understudy was engaged to the female stage manager.  That relationship provides the fodder for outrageous comedy and insightful observations about our culture.  Three New York actors bring their wonderful work to Cape May Stage!

The next night is the official opening night!  Join the party after the show at the Pier House on Beach Drive and meet Kristin Calgaro, G. R. Johnson, and Luke Darnell.  There is always a celebratory energy after an opening night particularly after a comedy!  The designers and director will be in attendance and they always enjoy talking about the work. Grab a cocktail and enjoy a special night.

The really exciting news is that Cape May Stage's spring fundraiser, Denim & Diamonds, is next week on Sunday, June 26th at the Corinthian Yacht Club!  This is the "see and be seen" event of the year and a wonderful excuse to wear something glittery with your dress-up denim!  There will be great music supplied by Blondage and an auction with new and exciting prizes!  It is guaranteed to be fun - and while you are enjoying yourself, you are also helping to bring the finest theatre and education outreach to our community.

The community of Cape May is such a special place.  It is events like Denim & Diamonds that provide the support for the growing reputation of Cape May Stage. People here see cutting edge theatrical events before anyone else.  The New Victory Theatre on Times Square in New York just announced the new season and it starts with The Little Prince with the same cast you saw at Cape May Stage!  We are so thankful to all of our supporters and that list expands with each new season.  More and more people are hearing about Cape May Stage and coming here to see what all that talk is about.  Be a part of it!

Call 884-1341 or go to capemaystage.com for tickets!  Life is too short to miss the fun times!
