The Stage Manager is Christine Petruzzell and the play's Producers are Joann Scanlon and Pam Heller.

Performances take place October 13-14, 20-21, 27-28 at 8:00pm; and October 15, 22 at 2:00pm. Tickets are: Adults $25, Seniors/Students $20 (with valid ID). Tickets are available for purchase online. The Summit Playhouse is located at 10 New England Avenue in Summit, New Jersey.

The Summit Playhouse, a non-profit community theatre, was founded in 1918 as a World War I relief organization. Since then, they have mounted over 300 productions, and we are one of the oldest continuously operating community theatres in the United States. They produce three Main Stage shows a year, with performances in November, February/March, and  April/May. Kaleidoscope Youth Theatre presents a Junior production in December and July, a full-length musical every summer, and various workshops throughout the year.
