(PRINCETON, NJ) -- McCarter Theatre Center presents Jazz in June, a five-performance series in McCarter's Berlind Theatre, featuring leading voices in contemporary jazz, global traditions, and family-friendly musical storytelling.

Pizza! Pizza! I scream. You scream. We all scream for Pizza!!! I am obsessed with the opening animation in Sebastian Hunt’s short film Pizza Man, very retro, very I watched this on my box TV when I was younger. The color grading felt real and not like a GLP-1 commercial on Hulu, which is always a plus in my book. It gave off “depressing work place that I hate to work at and just wanna go home.” IF I saw some weird old man dressed in a pizza costume 7 hours into my shift at my box office job that I am for sure carrying on my shoulders, I’d lowkey be pissed though, like boy get out my face and let me go home, girl I don’t wanna deal with this right im tired and the only thing getting me through the day is knowing I have a california king waiting for me at home. Pizza Man gave off Thor from Avengers: Endgame, like bitch we have work to do go save a pizza I don’t know. ALSO, I’m reallllllly hoping that is not Mitchell’s handwriting as an adult because honestly not even Pizza Man can save that.

(AVENEL, NJ) -- Megan Dolan, writer and performer of the award-winning, hilarious and heart-felt one person show, Not the Right Mom, brings the show to the Avenel Performing Arts Center on Saturday, May 30, 2026 for performances at 3:00pm & 8:00pm. The show invites you into the wildly relatable, unexpectedly hilarious world of parenting a child with autism—where expectations crumble, snack time is a battlefield, and unconditional love leads the way.
