Plan Your Visit
Our performances will not exceed two-and-a-half hours on the stage. This does not include intermission. Shows begin at 7:30 p.m. Sunday to Thursday; 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. There are also Theatre for Young Audiences performances every Wednesday and Saturday during the summer season. The Festival is closed on Mondays.
Actor talk backs for 2018 will be on Thursdays July 26 and August 2 & 9 following the performance. A senior staff person moderates a lively exchange between audience members and the actors for about 30 minutes. Afterwards, everyone is welcome to a modest ice cream social.
