(HACKENSACK, NJ) -- The Company Theatre Group presents a Staged Reading of Final Day, the Musical in the Ruth Bauer Neustadter Gallery at Hackensack Performing Arts Center on Tuesday, June 16, 2026 at 3:00pm & 7:00pm. Set on the final day of World War II in Germany, Final Day follows prisoners awaiting liberation as they confront a camp commandant under orders to execute them all.
As danger escalates, their wavering faith gives way to newfound courage, and they vow never again “to go quietly into the night.” Their only hope may rest in an unlikely alliance between a German officer and a Jewish prisoner—star-crossed lovers willing to risk everything to stop the massacre.
Featuring powerful anthems, romantic ballads, and moments of dark comic relief, Final Day blends historical tension with emotional storytelling.
Written by Danny Curtis, the reading is directed by Lou Scarpati. Don Macleay is the stage manager.
Tickets are available for purchase online. Warning: Some graphic content. The play is recommended for ages 16 and up. The venue is located at 102 State Street in Hackensack, New Jersey.
