OLIVER!

Theater for kids by kids!

August 10th – 12th, 2007

A waifish orphan is befriended by the pickpocketing Artful Dodger and recruited into the gang of boy thieves led by Fagin.

Full of memorable melodies and splendid lyrics, Oliver! is a timeless Charles Dickens' story!

JULY:

 

Valhalla

by Paul Rudnick

Outrageous! - The Star Ledger

An Explosion of Comedy! - The Westfield Leader

Prime Time/Suburban News says:

Valhalla delivers a raucous bawdy good time!

By Ellen Dooley

"I'll get right to the point: you have three weekends left to see Valhalla at The Theater Project in Cranford. Paul Rudnick's brilliantly bizarre and uproariously funny play is brought to rollicking life by a talented cast... and if relentlessly funny weren't enough, the script's underlying themes are as sober as war, betrayal, and death, and as timeless and profound as beauty, acceptance, and redemption. If the show sounds ambitious, that's because it is and as usual, The Theater Project gets it just right."

Below: The spirit of Marie Antoinette (Jenelle Sosa) inspires the cast of Valhalla (Clockwise from right: Kevin Sebastian, Gail Lou, Dennis DaPrile, Rick Delaney, and Stephen Medvidick).
