NHTO Fall Show
Play On! by Rick Abbott
Performances: November 1st and 2nd at 7pm; November 3rd at 2pm
Tickets will go on sale in October. Visit NHTO.BOOKTIX.COM to purchase tickets.
Play On! tells the hilarious story of a theatre group trying desperately to put on a play in spite of maddening interference from a haughty author who keeps revising the script. Told in three acts, audiences witness a dreadful rehearsal, a near disastrous dress rehearsal, and the actual performance, in which anything that can go wrong, does. The audience is treated to a madcap climax and a thoroughly hilarious show.

Prepare to have the time of your life at Mamma Mia! Sophie, a 20-year-old bride-to-be, is on the search for her father. After reading her mother’s diary, she discovers there are three potential suitors. Unbeknownst to her mother, Donna, Sophie invites each of them in hopes of having one of them walk her down the aisle. As the big day draws near, surprises abound with old flames and old friends. MAMMA MIA! is packed with 22 ABBA hits, including “Dancing Queen,” “Super Trouper,” “Take A Chance on Me,” and “The Winner Takes It All.” This worldwide megahit will have audiences shouting “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!” more!
If you can put a graphic, I have attached one to replace the text title– if you cannot, no worries!
