Step back into the days of yesteryear, when life was much simpler. You'll find yourself transported back into a world in which the rat race doesn't even exist. Relax and sit down next to our "radio" and listen as some nostalgic, original radio scripts come to life. Foley artists supply live sound effects during the performance. You may experience comedy, suspense, sci-fi, history or westerns as the evening unfolds. Come discover movies for the mind!

June Dinner Theatre
Moonlight and Magnolias
by Ron Hutchinson
June 20-22
Kane's Grille, Gloucester
1939 Hollywood is abuzz. Legendary producer David O. Selznick has shut down production of his new epic, Gone with the Wind, a film adaptation of Margaret Mitchell's novel. The screenplay, you see, just doesn't work.
So what's an all-powerful movie mogul to do? While fending off the film's stars, gossip columnists and his own father-in-law, Selznick sends a car for famed screenwriter Ben Hecht and pulls formidable director Victor Fleming from the set of The Wizard of Oz.
Summoning both to his office, he locks the doors, closes the shades, and on a diet of bananas and peanuts, the three men labor over five days to fashion a screenplay that will become the blueprint for one of the most successful and beloved filmsof all time.

November Musical Comedy
NUNSENSATIONS
The Nunsense
Vegas Revue
by Dan Goggin
November 13-16
Mathews High School
NUNSENSATIONS! The Nunsense Vegas Revue takes the Littler Sisters of Hoboken on a brand new adventure.
When a parishioner volunteers to donate $10,000 to the sisters' school if they will perform in a club in Las Vegas, Mother Superior is hesitant to accept. However, after being convinced by the other sisters that "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" Reverend Mother agrees. What follows is the most feather-filled, sequin-studded, fan dancing Nunsense show ever!
Performing in "The Pump Room" at the Mystique Motor Lodge, the sisters experience "show-biz" like never before. You'll meet Sin-City Sue, find out who's Black and White with Her Money on Red, and try to win a new car with the "Holy Rollers Giant Slot Machine."
Taking a line from another show, a critic pointed out, "It's a whole lot funny and a little bit naughty, but there ain't nothin' dirty goin' on!"
