The community is invited to the Lake Sunapee Region Center for the Arts “First Friday” program on September 4 from 5:00 to 7 PM. This event will take place at Whipple Hall in New London for “A Night with Northern Stage”. Center for the Arts events are free and open to the public.
“A Night with Northern Stage” will feature Artistic Director Carol Dunne who will present selections from their upcoming season. This will be followed by a brief Question and Answer period. Northern Stage’s 2015 season opens in October and concludes in April. The following productions are planned:
In October Northern Stage will present Our Town by Thornton Wilder. This incredible classic is an exquisitely crafted evaluation of everyday life.
November offers the musical Mary Poppins, the beloved Disney Classic. The songs from this play are remembered by all, including “A Spoon Full of Sugar”, “Supercalifragilisticexpalgiocious”, Chim, Chim Cher-ee”, as well as unforgettable dance numbers.
January will bring Mad Love, a comedy that takes a look at romance in the age of hook-ups and cell phones!
February presents a mystery with Hounds of the Baskervilles by Arthur Conan Doyle. This mystery follows an aristocratic British family where the males were hounded. Sherlock Homes and Watson are called to investigate with hilarious results!
Mountain Top by Katori Hall will be the choice for the month of March. After Martin Luther King delivered his most memorable speech, a feisty maid delivers unwelcome news, forcing King to confront his legacy, his destiny, and his humanity.
To close the season, Northern Stage will present The Norman Conquests: Living Together by Alan Ayck Bourne. Both hysterical and poignant this play romps through one day in the life of some unhappy thirty somethings in England.
Northern Stage is proud to announce that they have a new home at The Barrette Center for the Arts, performing in the Byrne Theater in White River Junction.
