A Moon for the Misbegotten

The Nora Theatre Company revives Eugene O’Neill’s enduring masterpiece, bringing together two of his most memorable characters: Josie Hogan, the tough-talking daughter of an Irish immigrant, and Jim Tyrone, first introduced in the autobiographical Long Day’s Journey Into Night. Uniquely funny and poignant, A Moon for the Misbegotten illuminates a search for redemption through an unlikely and magnificent love story.

The game is afoot! Master sleuth Sherlock Holmes and trusty Dr. Watson unlock the mystery of The Hound of the Baskervilles this summer at Central Square Theater. Featuring three actors taking on more than a dozen roles, this laugh-out-loud farce by Steven Canny and John Nicholson was a hit in both London and Lenox (Shakespeare & Company).

Never Far From Home

This summer, four friends gather to resume an old routine… but something – or someone – is missing from their harmonies. A bittersweet and hilarious love letter to leaving and being left, this charming and occasionally irreverent evening combines a collection of new songs by local composers, an original script by Lydia Diamond, and the vocal power of The Cabaret Series (Cheo Bourne, Jen Ellis, Brian Richard Robinson, Kami Smith).

Come early for complimentary jellybeans and live local music in the lobby before each performance!

Danny Bryck in NO ROOM FOR WISHING.

No Room for Wishing

Compiled from interviews and live recordings during the occupation of Dewey Square in Fall 2011, No Room for Wishing follows Occupy Boston from its formation, through clashes with the police, infighting among the activists, legal battles and collective victories, to its eviction by the City of Boston.

One of Boston’s most dynamic young theater makers portrays dozens of real-life characters in this fiercely immediate, up-close-and-personal encounter with our city, our nation, and ourselves.
