“Be Our Guest!” The Academy Award-winning film comes to life in this romantic and beloved take on the classic fairytale. Step into the enchanted world of Broadway’s modern classic, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast,an international sensation that played a remarkable 13-year run on Broadway and has been produced in 37 countries worldwide. The classic story tells of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped under the spell of an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed into his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity.
This “tale as old as time” offers family theatre at its best.

JCAT Community Presents "The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940"
Posted by Steven Kaiser on 04/23/2019 @ 09:38 AM
It’s not a musical, but it’s definitely a comedy!
May 7-19
By John Bishop, Directed by John Ferry
A large Westchester mansion with secret passages, a blizzard, a theatrical troupe and a homicidal maniac on the loose – what could possible go wrong?
This rip-roaring farce is a non-stop barrage of laughter as those assembled (or at least those who aren't killed off) untangle the mystery of the "Stage Door Slasher." is sure to please all audiences.
"…enormous fun…Its strength comes in part from the sheer diamond wit and diamante showbiz glitter of Bishop's writing. Even his corn is succulently served." —NY Post.
"…Bishop gives us a nakedly silly and relentlessly convoluted murder-mystery plot, with twist piled on twist till you have to give way and start laughing at the silliness…it's hugely enjoyable." —Village Voice.
"MURDERS is the intelligent person's kind of nonsense." —NY Magazine.

Neil Simon’s homage to Russian playwright, Anton Chekhov, who claimed all Chekhov’s plays were comedies! This crowd-pleasing play is sometimes farcical, sometimes comical, sometimes poignant… the humor infectious, and the fun never ending.
"A great deal of warmth and humor in his retelling of these Chekhovian tales." - Newhouse Newspapers
"There is much fun here. Mr. Simon's comic fancy is admirable." - The New York Times

JCAT Community Presents "The Diary Of Anne Frank
Posted by Steven Kaiser on 10/14/2018 @ 02:03 PM
![TheDiaryOfAnneFrank] (http://jcctheatre.com/season/2018-19Images/1AnneFrank.jpg)
October 24-November 5
A Play by Frances Goodrich & Albert Hackett
Based upon “Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl”
Newly Adapted by Wendy Kesselman
Directed by Michael Andron
In this transcendently powerful new adaptation by Wendy Kesselman, Anne Frank emerges from history a living, lyrical, intensely gifted young girl, who confronts her rapidly changing life and the increasing horror of her time with astonishing honesty, wit, and determination. An impassioned drama about the lives of eight people hiding from the Nazis in a concealed storage attic, THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK captures the claustrophobic realities of their daily existence—their fear, their hope, their laughter, their grief. Each day of these two dark years, Anne's voice shines through: "When I write I shake off all my cares. But I want to achieve more than that. I want to be useful and bring enjoyment to all people, even those I've never met. I want to go on living even after my death!" This is a new adaptation for a new generation.

JCAT Community presents The Last Night of Ballyhoo
Posted by Steven Kaiser on 02/13/2018 @ 02:43 PM
March 14-25
by Alfred Uhry Directed by Michael Andron
By the author of Driving Miss Daisy, this Tony Award winning play once again explores the lives of Jews in the American south. It is December of 1939. Gone with the Wind is having its world premiere, and Hitler is invading Poland, but Atlanta's uppercrust Freitag family is much more concerned with who is going to Ballyhoo, Atlanta’s Jewish cotillion and the social event of the season. The ensuing comedy proves both hilarious and thought provoking as it touches on themes of assimilation, anti-semitism and change.
Advance tickets: $25 • $15 seniors/full-time students At the door: $30 • $18 seniors/full-time students
