The Waterfront Playhouse / 39 Steps radio play

Dear Friends and Patrons,

The Waterfront Playhouse has been bringing fantastic stories to life for 80 years, but now on the eve of our 81st season, we pause. Certainly we have weathered storms and we will come through this one as well. Our hearts are with those who have been affected by this pandemic and our heartfelt thanks goes out to those who are working selfishly to keep us safe.

Although our season was cut short, we were able to revel in the antics of our Youth Theater production of Shrek,jr; do the time warp in the sold out production of The Roxy Horror Show, ‘Let the Sunshine’ in the sold out production of Hair, go Around the World in 80 Days, hear the music of Billie Holiday in Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar and Grill, experience a world premiere with Michael Aman’s Glass and have the time of your life with Priscilla Queen of the Desert.  Thank you, thank you and thank you! To those who did not see Priscilla, thank you for donating your tickets back to the theater or transferring it to a gift certificate or just giving us time to process exactly what was happening!

While shows have been cancelled, we have been busy planning what to bring you next.

On Saturday evening, May 2 at 8pm, tune in to US Radio One for the Waterfront Playhouse production of The 39 Steps: A Live Radio Play. Written by Joe Landry, produced by special arrangement with Playscripts, Inc. and featuring Dave Bootle, David Black, John McDonald, Erin Mckenna and Carolyn Cooper this radio play, with the help of Ben Pegg and Steve Miller,  will be broadcast live from the stage of the Waterfront. It will be great fun!

Our youth theater production of Disney’s Frozen, is on hold, but rest assured you will be able to Let It Go later this year!

Neil LaBute’s Bash, featuring Arthur Crocker, Belle Jampol, Lauren Thompson and Ross Pipkin is preparing for a password protected live stream at the end of the month.  (Don’t worry, we are playing safe).

A revival of our popular Trunk Material: a musical review is on the drawing table along with a fabulous season of plays and musicals to entertain you throughout the year!

We thank you again for your support and look forward to the day we can

“See you at the theater!
