The Ultimate Classical Tragedy Langhorne Players Style — Intimate, Engaged, Powerful, and Alive as Never Before!

Imagine walking into a theatre to see a run-through of Hamlet the day before they add all the elaborate costumes, sets, and pageantry associated with a “traditional” production. What would you see? Actors in street clothes, a bare set, a few key props---the action of the play stripped to its essentials.  What would you hear? A story of a young man grappling with life and death, what it means to be a moral adult; a story of parents and children, friends and enemies. All making the most important decisions of their lives, expressed in the most dramatic and powerful words ever written for the stage. A Langhorne Players’ Hamlet---Intimate, engaged, powerful, and alive as never before. Directed by Peter Shea Kierst, known for his distinguished tenure as the artistic director of the New Mexico Shakespeare Festival. 

AT THE WEDDING BY BRYNA TURNER

May 28, 29, 30; June 3, 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13

A Bitter-Sweet Comedy

You are cordially invited to the best day of someone else’s life!  But wait: What if it’s also the worst day of your life? Join Carlo as she attempts to make it through the night without drinking too much, talking too much, or trying to win back the bride. Bryna Turner’s bittersweet play–a laugh-out-loud comedy that nonetheless addresses some big issues–is for anyone who has ever attended a wedding or had their heart broken. “Bitterly funny... wisecracking and wisdom-sharing about the unbreakable bond between love and pain... there's a fun time to be had at this wedding.” – New York Theatre Guide

Witch By Jen Silverman

July 16, 17, 18, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30, 31; Aug. 1

Turning Classical Drama on its Head, A Wickedly-Dark Comedy of Errors!

A charming devil arrives in the quiet village of Edmonton to bargain for the souls of its residents in exchange for their darkest wishes. Elizabeth should be his easiest target, having been labeled a “witch” and cast out by the town, but her soul is not so readily bought. As the devil returns to convince her – and then returns again – unexpected passions flare, alliances are formed, and the village is forever changed. An inventive retelling of a Jacobean drama, this sharp, subversive fable debates how much our souls are worth when hope is hard to come by.  “Jen Silverman’s exceedingly smart new comedy… casts an intoxicating spell. “Utterly spellbinding... Superb... Intelligent.” – LA Daily News. “Darkly humorous... thematically current... a spell worth casting.” – The Hollywood Reporter

DOG MOM BY TATE ELIZABETH HANYOK

Aug. 27, 28, 29; Sept. 9, 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, 19

A Heartwarming Comedy

Liz is a tough-as-nails New Yorker with a life falling apart faster than her morning bagel. When a scruffy stray dog shows up on her stoop, Liz —⁠ the least dog person on the planet —⁠ reluctantly agrees to foster it. This temporary inconvenience quickly turns into a heartwarming and hilarious journey of self-discovery. Who says you can’t teach an old dog –or a stubborn New Yorker–new tricks? In the city that never sleeps, it sometimes takes an unexpected friend to wake up what truly matters and that the most loyal friends find each other when they need it most. “Whimsical, heartwarming, and side-splitting.”—⁠Shanti Kennedy, Broadway World “Should take the country by storm.”—⁠Kim Cool, Venice Gondolier-Sun

THESE SHINING LIVES BY MELANIE MARNICH

October 22, 23, 24, 28, 29, 30, 31; Nov. 5, 6, 7

A Forgotten Herstory Brought to Light 

These Shining Lives chronicles the strength and determination of women considered expendable in their roles working at the Radium Dial Company, revealing their true story and its continued resonance. Catherine and her friends are dying, it’s true, but theirs is a story of survival in its most transcendent sense.  They refuse to allow the company that stole their health to kill their spirits – or endanger the lives of those who come after them.  “An initially comic and ultimately tragic look at how individual women find employment within a system more concerned with profit than safety.” – Variety “Subtly stylized language and a sensibility that’s delicately oddball, even when probing troubling topics.” – Washington Post
