Giants in the Sky

Explore the world of Giants who live above the clouds. Ever since they left Earth a long time ago, the Giants have made a life up above where their job is to keep the sky beautiful. Polish the stars, poke the clouds to let it rain and paint the sunsets. But one curious Giant wonders what life is like on Earth…she steals a key to the locked up “beanstalk” and embarks on an adventure down below!

Plaza Suite

Plaza Suite by Neil Simon

PLAZA SUITE
by Neil Simon

Directed by Steve Black
Assoc Director Katie Meuse

Hilarity abounds in this portrait of three couples successively occupying a suite at the Plaza.

A suburban couple takes the suite while their house is being painted and it turns out to be the one in which they honeymooned 23 (or was it 24?) years before and was yesterday the anniversary, or is it today?

This wry tale of marriage in tatters is followed by the exploits of a Hollywood producer who, after three marriages, is looking for fresh fields. He calls a childhood sweetheart, now a suburban housewife, for a little sexual diversion. Over the years she has idolized him from afar and is now more than the match he bargained for.

The last couple is a mother and father fighting about the best way to get their daughter out of the bathroom and down to the ballroom where guests await her or as Mother yells, “I want you to come out of that bathroom and get married!”

Accidentally on Purpose

Silly Theatre Productions & Marblehead Little Theatre partner up once again for another evening of sidesplitting Improv Comedy in the beautiful Firehouse Theatre at 12 School St in Marblehead.

Wednesday April 19 at 7:30 pm featuring and opening by MLT’s own IMPROV Adult Workshop Graduates.

Spontaneous, entertaining, and fun! Accidentally on Purpose (AOP) is the hottest improv comedy troupe on the North Shore. The seasoned hilarious troupe’s comedy style is like that of the TV show “Whose Line Is It Anyway?”. The evening requires interactive madcap involvement of the audience with scene suggestions and volunteer opportunities. 

The AOP Improv troupe has a varied and eclectic cast of professionals whose day jobs include author, doctor, teacher, tradesmen, and corporate executives that have been laughing together for over a decade. These exciting day jobs serve to add a unique flavor to the comedy weaving throughout the night. 

We strongly recommend masks be worn by the audience.
The comedians will perform unmasked.
