How far would you go for your child? For Genevra and Joshua Bradley,
the question is no longer hypothetical. Their three-year-old son, Mac, is
next on the waiting list to get into the Bright Ideas Early Childhood
Development Academy - and everyone knows once you're in there, your life
will unfold with glorious ease. Josh and Gen have had to scramble all
their lives to get this far...and now they are on fatal dinner party away
from the ultimate success as parents: The Right Pre-School. You may
never look at pre-school - or pesto - the same way again...

| Staged Reading
|
August 23, 2008
The Brewster Theater Company presents a
free staged reading of Christopher Durang’s irreverent and adult comedy Beyond Therapy on August 23rd at 8 pm. Directed by Ryan Dietzen,
this production will be performed at The Tilly Foster Farm, 100 Route 312 in Brewster, NY.
Reservations via phone only - please call 845.598.1621. Prudence's therapist is urging her to be more assertive; while Bruce's
therapist urges him to meet someone of the opposite sex by placing a
personal ad, not realizing that Bruce has a male lover named Bob. Having
met each other Bruce doesn't know how to handle nervous Prudence; and
Prudence doesn't know what to make of decidedly unpredictable Bruce. How
they sort it all out is the story of this delightful comedy. 'Beyond
Therapy offers the best therapy of all: guaranteed laughter.'
Please note that this show contains adult themes and language.

October 17, 18, 24 & 25, 2008
Thomas Devereaux, a successful architect
and local contractor, and his beautiful wife, Joan, have just moved into
their dream house in the quiet suburban town of Green Meadows when they
are visited by their new neighbors, Carolyn and Jeff Symons, and a
friendship develops quickly between the two couples. But underneath the
cool, middle-American exterior, something is truly rotten. A previous
sexual relationship between Joan and a teenage lawn-boy is revealed, as is
the fact that Thomas learned of the infidelity and may have murdered his
wife's lover. To make matters worse, an affair has begun to develop
between Joan and Jeff Symons. One summer evening, following the Symons
departure after a friendly game of cards, Thomas lets Joan know that he is
aware of this new deception, and his violent, possessive nature surfaces.
He makes two demands of his wife: One, she must stop seeing Jeff. Two, she
must kill him. What follows is a diabolical plot that continues to thicken
through the final showdown between a murderer and an aggrieved widow. |
