Clear Space Theatre Company, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, Arts, Entertainment, Events, Delaware Beaches, Our Town, NYC trip to see ELF
What a difference a few weeks make!! Took a walk around Rehoboth yesterday, Saturday, and by the looks of the Boardwalk and the beach you would have thought there were no visitors in town. It was pretty, though. I like it quiet once in a while.
Rehoboth Avenue was pretty crowded, though. Everything is still open, french fries, candy, popcorn and the stores have plenty of sales.
I decided to go to Baltimore Avenue. This has been the new home of the Clear Space Theatre Company. They also changed the name from Productions to Theatre Company, as well. They have had a great season.
I know this building well because many years ago this was the Epworth Church and in it was a great pre-school, which my youngest son and friends attended.
Clear Space Theatre Company is located at Celebration Mall on 20 Baltimore Ave. in Rehoboth Beach. This street is also the home of many of our most popular restaurants. The Tel. is 302-227-2270 and the website is www.clearspacetheatre.org.
It has been a successful season, but it is not over yet. It is an on-going season to the delight of all of us, residents, locals, natives and visitors.
I am urging you to visit their website because you will find so much information; there is so much going on; upcoming events, purchasing of tickets and education.
The Clear Space Theatre Company’s mission is “to inspire audiences, artists, and students through high quality performances and educational experiences”.
Before I forget, this afternoon at 3 p.m. is the last performance of Thorton Wilder’s, Our Town. This Pulitzer-winning drama of a turn of a century New England town is arguably the most famous play in American Theatre.
But, if you are not able to catch this performance there are still so many other events in the near future.
Next Saturday, November 13th is the NYC Day Trip to see ELF! The Musical, based on the Will Ferrell Movie.
Bus will depart Rehoboth K-Mart at 7 a.m. to arrive in New York by 11 a.m. You will then have time to shop, eat, and explore before and after the show.
Meet at the Al Hirscfeld Theatre for ELF. Depart New York at 7 p.m. to return to Rehoboth by 11 p.m.
The cost? $150 per person. This includes transportation, tips and tolls, ticket to the show and breakfast. To register, please contact David Button, the Company Manager at 302-227-2270.
I was sent a press release and I think it is worth passing to you:
Clear space to Showcase their Rising Stars. Each semester, dozens of children get one step closer to their dream of performing on Broadway when they participate in the Clear Space Theatre Company’s Broadway Bound program.
Students in grades 1-8 meet once a week for a 10 week semester, focusing on 3 components of performance – acting, dance and voice.
The students also receive instruction in dance from Clear Space Executive Director Ken Skrzesz, who earned his MFA in dance and choreography from UNC-Greensboro, as well as vocal instruction from Artistic Director Doug Yetter, a graduate of New York University’s Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program.
The students have been working, this semester, on numbers like “I Got Rhythm, Nice Work if You Can Get It, and California, Here I Come”.
On Tuesday, November 23rd at 5:30 p.m. they will have the opportunity to showcase their semester’s studies in acting, dance and voice. Tickets are $5.00 and will be available at the door on the evening of the performance.
Again, please check the website for more info. on this program.
Later on in December, starting on Thursday December 2nd, Scrooge, that Holiday tradition loved by many will be the performance until Sunday, December 12th. Check the website for more info.
Scrooge – this original musical version of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, continues the family holiday tradition. A holiday adventure led by ghosts and a whole cast of merry-makers.
Have a great Day….talk to you later…..
