HOBOKEN – As Hoboken’s Mile Square Theatre prepares to open their new theatre space at 1400 Clinton St., they thought, what better way than with a show for the whole family?
A zany rendition of “Goodnight Moon” will premiere this weekend Saturday, April 9 with performances at 2 and 5 p.m. and Sunday, April 10 at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.
“We are very excited to debut our new theatre space with this magical family show,” says theatre director Chris O’Connor, noting that the show includes professional actors and puppets. “We have a tradition of producing high quality theatre for young audiences every season, and we think this show is a great way to welcome the community – both young and old – into our new space.”
As the clock strikes “bedtime” for a very antsy bunny, Old Lady tries and tries again to put him to bed. But his keen imagination, paired with a trove of best friends (made up of animals and inanimate objects) won’t let him fall asleep.
Additional shows are scheduled for April 16 (2 and 5 p.m.), April 17 (11 a.m. and 2 p.m.), April 23 (2 p.m. and 5 p.m.), and April 24 (11 a.m., 2 p.m. and an autism-friendly performance at 5 p.m.)
Tickets for the show cost $25 for adults and $15 for children and seniors. For tickets visit www.milesquaretheatre.org.
