THIS EVENT HAS PASSED

(BLOOMFIELD, NJ) -- Skyline Theatre Company, a 21-year-old professional theatre company now calling Essex County its home, presents a special tribute to Ireland for one performance only on Saturday, March 16 at 2:00pm featuring renowned Irish Tenor and New Jersey’s own Timothy Liam Smith in an intimate live performance of Reflections: Ireland In Song and Story.

Tickets are now on sale and reservations are strongly recommended for this one-afternoon-only special performance at The Mansion at the Oakeside Bloomfield Cultural Center, 240 Belleville Avenue in Essex County’s Bloomfield, NJ. Tickets are $25 each, with discounted tickets for Seniors at $20, and can be purchased via Skyline Theatre Company’s virtual box office on its website at SkylineTheatreCompany.org and via this secure link.

Nationally renowned Irish Tenor Timothy Liam Smith paints a beautiful and stirring tapestry of Irish heritage through songs, stories, poems and jokes. The audience will discover what the Irish people really are like and what forms their unique character – from family and love to religion and the Troubles. Pianist David Maiullo will musically direct and accompany the performance.

“We are fortunate to have Tim join us for this special performance celebrating Celtic heritage and our Essex County audience will certainly feel the luck of the Irish when they join us on St. Patrick’s Day weekend,” said Sam Scalamoni, Skyline Theatre Company’s founder and artistic director. 

Timothy Liam Smith is one of America's premiere performers of Irish tenor music and Irish culture and has more than 50 years of stage and performing experience, including regional theatre, opera, night clubs, television commercials, voiceovers and modeling. He has created several one-man shows including ‘John McCormack: His Life in Song and Story,’ ‘Love and Longing,’ and his newest ‘From Erin to Broadway.’ Away from the stage, he also served as a Councilman and Mayor in Roxbury Township and authored political columns for the New Jersey Hills newspaper chain.

Skyline Theatre Company’s 2024 season in Bloomfield continues Friday, May 10 at 7pm with BROADWAY IN CONCERT: BABY at The Little Theatre under the Bloomfield Children’s Library, 90 Broad Street in Bloomfield. This sweet and touching musical from acclaimed duo, Richard Maltby, Jr., and David Shire, examines how parents-to-be experience the emotional stresses and triumphs, as well as the desperate lows and the comic highs that accompany the anticipation and arrival of a baby. Full of heart and joy, this Tony Award nominated Best Musical will be presented in an Encores-like concert setting centered on three couples working their way towards parenthood under three VERY different sets of circumstances.

More information on the Skyline Theatre 2024 season is available through Skyline’s website and its social media channels. Please visit SkylineTheatreCompany.org or call the virtual box office at 1-800-474-1299.

Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites... 07/30/2026

"Yeah, the idea started early last year," enthusiastically stated guitarist Adrian Vandenberg as he discussed his upcoming "My Whitesnake Years" tour, a conglomeration of hits from some of the most revered classic rock acts of all time. "Last year it was 35 years ago when Whitesnake headlined the legendary Donington Festival in England. So, we thought it would be a good thing to celebrate that anniversary and do a "My Whitesnake Years" tour and when we were done, people from all over the world began asking if we'd be willing to do a run here or there and we went to Scandinavia, Spain and there is actually more stuff in the pipeline for next year also and of course now to the United States and it has been a lot of fun so far."
