The Outsider, Paper Mill Playhouse
The Outsider, Paper Mill Playhouse, 22 Brookside Drive, Millburn, 973-376-4343 In politics, the less you know, the higher you’ll go! At once a razor-sharp satire and an inspirational tribute to democracy, The Outsider is a timely and hilarious send-up of modern American politics. In the midst of a political scandal, Ned Newley, the ultimate policy wonk, is unexpectedly thrust into the position of Governor. A complete unknown, with no political instincts and a paralyzing fear of public speaking, Ned seems destined to fail. But his political consultants see things a little differently: Ned might be the worst candidate to ever run for office. Unless the public is looking for… the worst candidate to ever run for office! Runs Jan 24 - Feb 18

Time Stands Still, Bristol Riverside Theater
Time Stands Still, Bristol Riverside Theater, 120 Radcliffe Street, Bristol, PA, 215-785-0100 Sarah and James work together as war correspondents—she’s a photographer; he’s a writer. When a car bomb injures Sarah, she comes home to recuperate in the loft they share. It’s soon clear that she is eager to return to the action, while he’s relieved to be away from the terror and bloodshed. Faced with the prospect of leading a normal life, can Sarah confront her addiction to chaos and war? From Pulitzer Prize-winner Donald Margulies, this Broadway hit play is a witty, intelligent look at ordinary life through the lens of war. Jan 23 - Feb 11

Twentieth Century Limited for New York and Boston now ready on Track 14. All aboard! Get away with Theater To Go back to the1930’s.
