Brook Arts Center presents "CLUE, On Stage"

(BOUND BROOK, NJ) -- Murder and blackmail are on the menu at the Brook Arts Center in Bound Brook on March 18 through 27, when six mysterious guests assemble for a dinner party at Boddy Manor.  Join them for an interactive theatrical event, as they bring to life the classic board game Clue on stage across two weekends (March 18-20 and March 25-27). Based on the cult 1985 Paramount movie and inspired by the classic Hasbro game, this farce-meets murder- mystery is bloody good fun. 



Inside "Baipás" at George Street Playhouse

by Charles Paolino
published 2022-03-01

Baipás, the play that will reignite the George Street Playhouse season, is, in theatrical parlance, a “two-hander,” which means that it has two characters. But that’s only partly true. There are only two actors, but, without saying a word, the audience in this play by Jacobo Morales, plays a role—in fact, multiple roles—that are important to the story.



Our Favorite Stories In Theatre: Hiding Out In The Nether

New Jersey Stage published its 25,000th story in December 2021. As the site approached the milestone, we posed the question on social media as how we should celebrate.  One response was to highlight our favorite stories from over the years.  We liked this idea, but could not narrow things down to just 25 favorites so we will present a favorite each day from different genres.  Every Tuesday we feature one of our favorite stories in theatre. This week's choice is a feature on The Nether, a play by Jennifer Haley, which was presented by Centenary Stage Company.





State Theatre presents "Cats"

(NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ) -- The newly renovated State Theatre New Jersey presents the Tony® Award-winning musical, CATS for five performances from March 18-20. Audiences and critics alike are rediscovering this beloved musical with breathtaking music, including one of the most treasured songs in musical theater -- “Memory.” 



PHOTOS from "Amadeus" at Algonquin Arts Theatre

(MANASQUAN, NJ) -- Peter Shaffer's Amadeus is entering its last weekend at Algonquin Arts Theatre with performances on Saturday at 8:00pm and Sunday at 3:00pm.  The play is a reimagining of the lives of Antonio Salieri and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The play, brought to life with the music of Mozart, is a tale of jealousy and betrayal... and perhaps even murder. The story opens in 1825 on the eve of the elderly Salieri's death. The show won the Tony award for Best Play and the Academy Award for Best Film. Algonquin's production will be directed by Gina Lupi.

The State Theatre, in New Brunswick, is back, klieg lights and all, as are so many theaters in New Jersey, re-adjusting to a COVID – 19 world. It is back with a bang, too, with famous artists such as the Righteous Brothers, classic stars such as Itzhak Perlman, large orchestras such as the Royal Philharmonic, pop shows such as Dancing with the Stars, and movie concerts such as Casablanca and Star Wars. The theatre’s new foundation, though, is a stellar line up of plays, the Broadway Subscription Series, with five plays, all musicals, each on for a weekend.
