During the 2020 shutdown, production was halted for our company’s debut production of “Chicago”. When our contracts were cancelled, we decided we needed to begin planning for our official debut summer. People needed an outlet to create during this specific holiday season, so we decided to host a Virtual Holiday Cabaret to help us raise funds for our upcoming summer. This was live streamed in December of 2020, and its success led to us producing a Valentine’s “Cabaret of Love” in February of 2021. All of the proceeds raised during these events went directly to the production of our first summer musical “Mamma Mia”, in July of 2021. 

Our debut production was “Mamma Mia”. This production took place on July 24th & 25th of 2021 and was the beginning of our relationship with the Dunellen Arts and Culture Commission at Washington Memorial Park. The production’s team consisted of Will Adams, Paris Bozzuti, Caroline Macchiarola, LindaRose Piccolo, Victoria Piccolo, and Becca Wasserman. We are so grateful that our first production was such a success and built the foundations for years to come! 

Our second production in Washington Memorial Park was “Grease” in 2022. For our previous summer, we performed the show using backing tracks, which were efficient but not the best for production quality and ease. We rocked Dunellen with the addition of our Pit Band, which was led & conducted by Anya Fenn. This talented cast, pit, and creative team was highly successful in creating a beautiful show and bringing the 50’s to the park. 

Our third production was “Rock of Ages” at Washington Memorial Park in 2023. In our efforts to continue growing every year, we chose to implement costumes for the first time. Our production team worked incredibly hard to find and create amazing costumes for all of our talented cast members. This production included classic rock tunes, allowing our audience to get involved with familiar songs from the past! 

Our fourth annual summer production was “Legally Blonde” at Washington Memorial Park in 2024. This marked the first year of our company offering production opportunities for interested students. Our all-new production team consisting of Bryan Kotlar, Ainsley Ball, Cameron Knauf, Franny Murray, Marissa Lazovick, Olivia Fuoti, Danny Schneider, and Niasia Pierre took over the reins and put on an amazing show. The show held performances on July 20 and 21 and drew our largest crowds to date. We love to see our cast and crew members enjoy their week with us, and it was easy to see the community that bloomed over the course of this production. Can’t wait to see what next year has in store!

Our fifth and most recent annual summer production was “High School Musical” in 2025. This summer, we added new members to our creative team and worked with returning artists. We included more scenic and lighting design and increased organizational efforts. Through incredible heat and rain, we created another magical production in Dunellen.
