First Avenue Playhouse presents "A Christmas Chaos"

(ATLANTIC HIGHLANDS, NJ) -- First Avenue Playhouse presents A Christmas Chaos by Michael Wehrli in December.

Have you ever experienced backstage mayhem? Well you haven’t seen anything yet! This extremely fast paced physical comedy will prove that sometimes everything that can go wrong Will go wrong!. 

The production, directed by Jess Weygant, opens on December 1st with performances on Fridays at 7:30pm (1st, 8th, 15th & 22nd); Saturdays at 7:30pm (2nd, 9th, 16th & 23rd); and Sundays (10th and 17th) at 2:30pm.

ON-GOING EVENTS

(MADISON, NJ) -- Long before Bridgerton sparked desires and ignited our screens, a young, new writer set the hearts of England ablaze with the deep longing of her compelling characters. Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility tells the captivating tale of the Dashwood sisters as they attempt to navigate financial strife, would-be suitors, and the rigid edicts of English society following the death of their father. Jessica Swale’s elegant stage adaptation of this beloved classic overflows with humor and style. The Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey will present Sense and Sensibility at their F.M. Kirby Shakespeare Theatre on the campus of Drew University from September 4-22, 2024.
