Founded in 1968, Princeton Summer Theater is a semi-professional summer stock theater company located in Princeton University’s Hamilton-Murray Theater.

The summer begins with Jason Robert Brown’s folksy, charming, and loving The Bridges of Madison County, based on Robert James Wallar’s 1992 romance novel, which features a lush and beautiful score. Our season continues with the madcap farce The Mystery of Irma Vep: A Penny Dreadful, a play by Charles Ludlam, which opens on July 3rd and closes on July 19th. The nal production of the summer is Nick Dear's adaptation of Frankenstein, opening on July 24th and closing on August 2nd, which brings a fresh view of the classic gothic horror story.

The season will also feature an End-of-Season Cabaret and Gala on August 3rd!
