THE LAST ROMANCE

By Joe DiPietro (author of last season's hit play Over The River and Through The Woods)

​​​​

About The Show:

A crush can make anyone feel young again—even a widower named Ralph. On an ordinary day in a routine life, Ralph decides to take a different path on his daily walk—one that leads him to an unexpected second chance at love. Relying on a renewed boyish charm, Ralph attempts to woo the elegant, but distant, Carol. Defying Carol’s reticence—and his lonely sister’s jealousy—Ralph embarks on the trip of a lifetime, and regains a happiness that seemed all but lost. THE LAST ROMANCE is a heart-warming comedy about the transformative power of love.

THE ANGEL NEXT DOOR

aka "THEATRE PEOPLE"

By Paul Slade Smith, adapted from Molnar's Play at the Castle​​​​

About The Show:

In this rollicking comedy, young Oliver Adams is on the brink of a major success. His novel The Angel Next Door is set to be published, and famed Broadway playwrights (and married couple) Charlotte and Arthur Sanders have already adapted his book for what is sure to be a huge stage hit. And who do they have their eye on as the leading lady? Margot Bell, of course, the very person Oliver adores and about whom he has written his novel (though he hasn’t told her yet). When they all converge for a weekend in Newport, Rhode Island, the thin walls of the well-appointed mansion reveal that the angel may not be angelic, and only the power of theatre can save the play, Oliver’s novel, and perhaps most importantly, his heart.

​

"THE ANGEL NEXT DOOR is a glittering, effervescent hit romantic comedy... bubbling over with non-stop laughs, merriment, glamor, and high-spirited hijinks. It's hard to think of more fun you could have at the theatre right now, or really, more fun anywhere." - BroadwayWorld
