ON THE OUTDOOR STAGE!
There's nothing like the experience of outdoor theatre! Travel
back in time to centuries past via our new Outdoor Stage,
on the campus of the College of Saint Elizabeth in nearby
Morristown (2 Convent Road, at the Convent Station train stop).
The beautiful, open-air Greek amphitheatre -- inspired by
the Theatre of Dionysus in Athens -- is one of the only theatres
of its kind in the United States. Bring along a picnic for
a terrific family outing, "date night" or get-together
with friends!
Hopelessly in love with ladies who don't meet their fathers'
approval, a pair of starry-eyed suitors enlist the help of
a mischievous servant, Scapin, who paves the way for true
love while exacting his own revenge on two miserly merchants.
In classic commedia dell'arte style, Molière's rollicking
farce has been tickling funny bones with its comic hijinks
since 1671. Perennial audience favorite James Michael Reilly
returns to portray the wily Scapin, whose outrageous schemes
will delight adults and children alike. Directed by Joe Discher,
Molière's rollicking farce also features Tony Award
nominee Robert LuPone.
Because this is an outdoor performance, the Theatre recommends
bringing a seat cushion and insect repellant to ensure your
comfort throughout the show. Refreshments will also be on
sale at the amphitheatre, for your convenience.
