Theater To Go Announces New Partnership with the Chauncey Hotel and Conference Center

originally published: 10/24/2014
Theater To Go has partnered with the Chauncey Hotel and Conference Center on the campus of ETS in Princeton to bring Murder Mysteries to a wider audience. The company's first event will be Murder on the Waterfront, to be presented on Friday November 14, 2014. Price of $55 includes a gourmet dinner and show.

One of their most popular Audience participation comedy murder mysteries, Murder on the Waterfront tells the story of Nolo Contendo the "Capo" of the Contendo Crime Family, who calls a meeting of the organization to make an important announcement. All the big mob families are there: The Bananas, The Bambinos, The Parcheses, The Pottis. What does he have to say to them? Vinny Da Pooh, his Consiglieri,. This show is full of surprises and even a séance! Join them as they unravel the goings on of this powerful New Jersey mob family, and enjoy some laughs along the way. And while you play along with the show you can enjoy a delicious gourmet dinner. Coffee and tea included, and a cash bar will be available.

The play stars Theater To Go regulars Art Miller , Kitty Getlik, Laurie Hardy, Mark Violi ( who also wrote the script) Ruth Markoe, and Jimmy Folly.

Under the leadership of Ruth Markoe, Theater to Go has been entertaining audiences around New Jersey and the region since 1992 and has been expanding its repertoire to include Movie Musical Sing Alongs, most recently FROZEN, which played to sold out houses since June. In March they will screen the Mamma Mia Sing Along . All offer ample opportunities to sing along and participate in the fun.

Theater To Go believes that the opportunity to play is fundamental to a happy life. But with today's hectic lifestyle, we often don't take time to explore our playful side. While many people stop playing at age 12 or so, actors are able to play all their lives. The company's mission is to have audiences join them in their playground! Theater To Go audiences don't just sit back and watch -- the company allows the "fourth wall" to be broken and so the audience can interact and participate with the actors. No one is forced to take on a part, but through our coming into the audience and relating to our guests in character, as well as through the games and activities which are part of the shows, we make the audience feel comfortable, relaxed and engaged.

Audience participation has a rich and significant history in the theater, dating back to Commedia de Arte and before. Theater To Go draws upon those earlier theatrical forms to provide an opportunity for our audiences to enjoy the theatrical process not only as spectators but as participants.

Theater To Go is also proud to be part of the Kelsey Theatre family, where they produced The 39 Steps last season. In February, the company will return to Kelsey with Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Theater To Go produced the highly acclaimed historical drama Roebling the Story of the Brooklyn Bridge, by Hamilton NJ native Mark Voli. This show played for a limited engagement to enthusiastic audiences at the New jersey State Museum in 2014.
