WE ARE EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THE CAST OF LTM's June Production of NATIVE GARDENS! 🌳🪴🌹🌼 Directed by Billy Winter Assistant Director Chris Corrales Stage Manager Matt Gaudio Production Dates: Weekends June 7th - June 23rd CAST: Natalia Lopez as TANIA DEL VALLE Manuel Morales as PABLO DEL VALLE Marge Patefield as VIRGINIA BUTLEY Doug Stoyer as FRANK BUTLEY J'zeida Ortega as ENSEMBLE 1 Melanie Serkosky as ENSEMBLE 2 A HILARIOUS HOT-BUTTON COMEDY In this brilliant comedy, cultures and gardens clash, turning well-intentioned neighbors into feuding enemies. Pablo, a rising attorney, and doctoral candidate Tania, his very pregnant wife, have just purchased a home next to Frank and Virginia, a well-established D.C. couple with a prize-worthy English garden. Tensions rise when Tania’s plan for a “native garden” disagrees with Frank’s perfectly pristine posies and a property line disagreement turns into war — where taste, class, and entitlement push them all over the hedge. The couples will soon find themselves building fences and breaking down barriers at the same time. NATIVE GARDENS is an entertaining look at what it takes to be good neighbors.

Check out the latest review of LTM's Joyous Production of LEGALLY BLONDE THE MUSICAL! 🎼😀👏 “Omigod you guys” I just had the most incredible experience attending a preview of Little Theatre of Manchester’s production of Legally Blonde, directed by Linda Dubuc Wilson and Music Director Susan Carroll. Immersed in a world of pink, Dubuc Wilson skillfully guides us through the contrasting realms of Elle Woods, from Malibu, California, to Harvard Law School in Massachusetts. Rachel Ballasy shines as Elle, effortlessly balancing bubbly pink perfect charm with the gravity of adulthood’s challenges. The ensemble delivers a stellar performance, weaving a poignant narrative. Memorable musical numbers like “Ireland” and “Gay or European” captivate, while “Whipped Into Shape” is an absolute showstopper. This production is uproariously funny, boasting dazzling dance sequences and a powerful message: happiness stems not from finding the perfect boy, but from purpose, integrity, and self-acceptance. Don’t miss Legally Blonde, running April 12-28 at Cheney Hall. Friday and Saturday performances begin at 7:30pm. Sunday performances are at 2pm. The show is sold out, but to have your name put on the wait list, please call 860-647-9824. #cttheatre #manchesterct #eastoftheriverct #the_ltm #letsgoarts #legallyblondethemusical #manchesterctarts

SPRING HAS ARRIVED AND SO SHOULD YOU, AT AUDITIONS THAT IS! LTM is pleased to announce open auditions for our June production of NATIVE GARDENS. We are seeking a diverse and multi-racial cast for this production. 🌺🌾 Auditions Dates: Sunday, March 24 at 12pm and Monday, March 25 at 7pm Callbacks on Wednesday, March 27 at 7pm, if necessary. Auditions will take place at Cheney Hall, 177 Hartford Rd., Manchester, CT. Those auditioning should bring their resume; headshots will be taken at the theater. Please wear clothing that will be comfortable for movement. All roles are available. This production will run from June 7 through 23rd, and will be directed by Billy Winter. Any questions can be directed to him at [email protected] or visit cheneyhall.org/auditions Synopsis: Old neighborhood. New neighbors. Tania and Pablo Del Valle have just moved into a historic neighborhood in Washington D.C. next-door to Virginia and Frank Butley. Tania has big plans to revitalize their new backyard, nurturing a garden with plants native to the area. Frank dreams of winning more than an “Honorable Mention” in the annual contest for his meticulously curated garden. In order to impress his new boss, Pablo has invited the entire firm over for a barbecue on Saturday. The Potomac Horticulture Society judges stop by on Sunday. When Tania and Pablo go to replace the ivy-covered chain-link fence separating the two yards, they discover that their property line extends two feet over onto Frank and Virginia’s side. Ideologies collide, as traditional values clash with modern sensibilities. With only six days to get ready, the neighbors are put to the test. Do good fences really make good neighbors? #cttheatre #the_ltm #letsgoarts #glastonburyct #eastoftheriverct #manchesterct #theatrect #nativegardens #ctauditions #actorsinct #manchesterctarts #ctgardenclub #ctgardenclubs

LTM is pleased to announce open auditions for a June production of NATIVE GARDENS. We are seeking a diverse and multi-racial cast for this production. Auditions: Sunday, March 24 at 12pm Monday, March 25 at 7pm Callbacks on Wednesday, March 27 at 7pm, if necessary. Auditions will take place at Cheney Hall, 177 Hartford Rd., Manchester, CT. Those auditioning should bring their resume; headshots will be taken at the theater. Please wear clothing that will be comfortable for movement. All roles are available. This production dates June 7th - 23rd. Directed by Billy Winter. Any questions can be directed to him at [email protected]. Synopsis: Old neighborhood. New neighbors. Tania and Pablo Del Valle have just moved into a historic neighborhood in Washington D.C. next-door to Virginia and Frank Butley. Tania has big plans to revitalize their new backyard, nurturing a garden with plants native to the area. Frank dreams of winning more than an “Honorable Mention” in the annual contest for his meticulously curated garden. In order to impress his new boss, Pablo has invited the entire firm over for a barbecue on Saturday. The Potomac Horticulture Society judges stop by on Sunday. When Tania and Pablo go to replace the ivy-covered chain-link fence separating the two yards, they discover that their property line extends two feet over onto Frank and Virginia’s side. Ideologies collide, as traditional values clash with modern sensibilities. With only six days to get ready, the neighbors are put to the test. Do good fences really make good neighbors?

LTM is excited to announce our Evenings@7 2024 Season! 👏⭐😁 Friday, May 17 The Lifespan of a Fact by Kareken, Murrell, and Farrell Directed by Nick Fetherston The Lifespan of a Fact Jim Fingal is a fresh-out-of-Harvard fact checker for a prominent but sinking New York magazine. John D’Agata is a talented writer with a transcendent essay about the suicide of a teenage boy—an essay that could save the magazine from collapse. When Jim is assigned to fact check D’Agata’s essay, the two come head to head in a comedic yet gripping battle over facts versus truth. Friday, September 13 Marian, or The True Tale of Robin Hood by Adam Szymkowicz Directed by Todd Santa-Maria Marian, or The True Tale of Robin Hood Robin Hood is (and has always been) Maid Marian in disguise, and leads a motley group of Merry Men (few of whom are actually men) against the greedy Prince John. As the poor get poorer and the rich get richer, who will stand for the vulnerable if not Robin? What is the cost of revealing your true self in a time of trouble? Modern concerns and romantic entanglements clash on the battlefield and on the ramparts of Nottingham Castle. Friday, October 4 Diversions by Christopher Durang Directed by Lucas Veo Diversions A man is about to jump off a building when a nun tries to stop him. Aloysius thinks the nun is trying to push the man off and tries to stop the nun. A policeman tries to stop all of them, but he falls off the roof. The whole thing winds up in court, where a game of bridge breaks out and more bodies start to pile up.
