Love is in the Air: 4 Staged Readings of Plays about Love
As part of its ongoing collaboration with the 1867 Sanctuary at Ewing, the regions newest Center for the Arts, Theater To Go will return on Fridays in February and March for LOVE IS IN THE AIR,  a series of 4 staged readings of plays about Love.. Each Friday will bring a different Play, 2 from established playwrights and two by emerging playwrights. The new plays were selected to complement the known plays and it is hoped that audiences will come to all four readings to discuss the similarities and differences in the themes and styles of each play.
These staged readings will be directed by Steve Gaissert for Theater To Go and will feature talk backs and refreshments after each performance.
The schedule is as follows:

Feb 3, 2017-
ROMANTIC COMEDY:  Written by renowned playwright, Bernard Slade (Tony Award nominated for Same Time, Next Year)
Phoebe Craddock and Jason Carmichael, playwrights who meet and decide to collaborate just as he is getting married. Their relationship produces first a failure and then a string of successes, and their repartée remains sharp and witty as their unrequited interest in each other gathers energy over a nine-year period, until some resolution finally is in sight ROMANTIC COMEDY opened on Broadway in November 1979, and  ran for 396 performances.

Feb 10, 2017-
THE PLAYMAKERS: A new Play by Julie Zaffrano (winner of Best New Work WIP Play Fest 2016)
Lisa and Sebastian were a successful romantic comedy playwriting team, and lovers, whose professional and personal relationship crashed and burned. After several years apart, they are thrown together by a producer to revive a play. As they try to recapture their signature spark, the characters in the play revolt and the line between reality and fantasy disappears. This new comedy will have you laughing in the aisles

Nick is a single, Italian-American guy from New Jersey. His parents retired and moved to Florida. That doesn't mean his family isn't still in Jersey. In fact, he sees both sets of his grandparents every Sunday for dinner. This is routine until he has to tell them that he's been offered a dream job that would take him away from his beloved, but annoying, grandparents. He tells them. The news doesn't sit so well. Thus begins a series of schemes to keep Nick around.
