Barb desperately needs friends. That’s why she moved to this 55+ community in the first place. So what better way to meet new people than to join a good old fashioned Bingo Night?

This special co-production between Maurer Productions OnStage and Maurer TheaterWorks Presents reunites an acclaimed, Perry Award–winning creative team for the world premiere of an original new comedy. Inspired by stage legends like Neil Simon and Noël Coward — and fueled by the delightful chaos of internet-age relationships — this sparkling ensemble play is a recipe for laughter. It’s New Year’s Eve. The coffee is hot and the clock is ticking at the New Dawn Diner, where the lives of several couples converge. As midnight approaches, old loves are tested, new sparks fly, and everyone must decide who they’re bringing into the new year, and who they’re leaving behind. Funny, tender, and full of heart, Midnight at the New Dawn is a romantic comedy about risk, resilience, and the hope that comes with every fresh start.

 
Inspired by the twisted genius of Roald Dahl, the Tony Award-winning Roald Dahl’s Matilda The Musical is the captivating masterpiece from the Royal Shakespeare anarchy of childhood, the power of imagination and the inspiring story of a girl who dreams of a better life.
