Guttenberg, now appearing in "Tales from the Guttenberg Bible" at the George Street Playhouse, recalls that one of the group, Sean Connery, got up and asked the woman if she would like his autograph.

Vanguard Theater presents Illuminating New Voices, New Works Festival

(NETCONG, NJ) -- The Growing Stage, The Children's Theatre of New Jersey, is presenting their final mainstage production of the 2022-2023 season, Don't Let The Pigeon Drive The Bus! The Musical! weekends through May 21. This production is even more fun than staying up late and having a hot dog party! It's not easy being the Pigeon-you never get to do ANYTHING! But when the Bus Driver has a crisis that threatens to make her passengers (gasp!) late, maybe that wily bird CAN do something. Photographer John Posada was on hand to take photos.
