Season Subscriptions for Cranford Dramatic Club

Cranford Dramatic Club is now selling season subscriptions for their upcoming season. Shows covered by the subscription include "Born Yesterday," "Green Day's American Idiot," and "The Drowsy Chaperone." Not included are "Rapunzarella White" in December and Junior Theater's "Tarzan: The Musical" in June.

Born Yesterday is a deliciously witty screwball comedy about a corrupt businessman trying to get ahead in Washington. He hires a newspaperman to tutor his brassy girlfriend but gets more than he bargained for when he discovers a little bit of learning can be a dangerous thing. The show runs at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays October 16-24 and at 2 p.m. Oct. 18 and 24.

In the two-time Tony award-winning hit musical "American Idiot," based on Green Day's
Grammy Award-winning multi-platinum album, Johnny, Tunny and Will struggle to find meaning in a post-9/11 world. The rock opera features little dialogue and instead relies on the lyrics from Green Day's groundbreaking album to execute the story line. at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays Feb. 12-27 and at 2 p.m. Feb. 21.

With the house lights down, a man in a chair appears on stage and puts on his favorite record: the cast recording of a fictitious 1928 musical. The recording comes to life and "The Drowsy Chaperone" begins as the man in the chair looks on. Mix in two lovers on the eve of their wedding, a bumbling best man, a desperate theater producer, a not-so-bright hostess, two gangsters posing as pastry chefs, a misguided Don Juan and an intoxicated chaperone, and you have the ingredients for an evening of madcap delight. at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays May 6-21 and at 2 p.m. May 15.

To purchase a subscription, download the form here, fill it out and send it to PO box 511, Cranford, NJ, 07016. Those with season subscriptions will be able to reserve seats. Cranford Dramatic Club is located at 78 Winans Avenue, Cranford.
