Our production of Triumph of Love continues its run this weekend.  Reservations are recommended, so make ‘em by calling 908-879-7304.  More details on the show can be found on the show page; but here’s some eye candy courtesy of photographer Rich Kowalski…

Ruth Ross of the Recorder Newspapers had so many wonderful things to say about our current production of Triumph of Love that we’re having a hard time pulling out the best bits.

Better you should just go read the whole wonderful review.

Some highlights:

“By definition, a farce is a silly play, but marry it to lush melodies gloriously sung by seven very talented actors, lots of double entendres and superb physical comedy and you have the delectable confection that is “Triumph of Love,” currently receiving a triumphant production by the Chester Theatre Group.”

“Musical director Thomas Rodgers has put together an eight-piece orchestra that makes the production seem larger and lusher than it has any right to be. Jeff Fiorello and Billy Brisley have choreographed the action and the dancing to a fare-the-well, and Mark Happel’s costumes have just the right touch of commédia del’arte outlandishness.”

“‘Triumph of Love’ caps a terrific season at Chester Theatre Group, which included “The Receptionist” and “Shirley Valentine.” So for comic hijinks and beautiful music, head on out to the Black River Playhouse on Grove Street in Chester for a triumphant “Triumph of Love.”  It’s a real winner!”

Thanks, Ruth! We couldn’t have said it better ourselves!

The second round of Musical Chairs auditions is happening tonight at 7:00.

So, put down the cerveza and join us… sing a song, read a little and then you can go back out for Cinco de Mayo… :-)

Our production of Triumph of Love is off to a rousing start!  Tickets are going fast, so make your reservations by calling 908-879-7304.  More details on the show can be found on the show page; but here’s some eye candy…
