Skyline Theatre Company, a 21-year-old professional theatre company now calling Essex County its home, will present a special one-performance-only concert presentation of BABY, the Tony Award nominated Broadway musical, on Friday, May 10 at 7 p.m.

Tickets are now on sale and reservations are strongly recommended for this one-night-only performance at The Little Theatre under the Bloomfield Children’s Library, 90 Broad Street in Essex County’s Bloomfield, NJ. Tickets are $25 each, with discounted tickets for Seniors at $20, and can be purchased via Skyline Theatre Company’s virtual box office on its website at SkylineTheatreCompany.org and via this secure link: https://app.arts-people.com/index.php?ticketing=skytc.

This sweet and touching musical from acclaimed duo, Richard Maltby, Jr., and David Shire, examines how parents-to-be experience the emotional stresses and triumphs, as well as the desperate lows and the comic highs that accompany the anticipation and arrival of a baby. Full of heart and joy, this Tony Award nominated Best Musical will be presented in an Encores-like concert setting centered on three couples working their way towards parenthood under three VERY different sets of circumstances.

The production is directed by Sam Scalamoni, Skyline Theatre Company’s founder and artistic director, with Musical Direction by Tom McDonough. The cast includes Tommy Betz, David Couter, Alexa Lowrey, Marie Lemon, Mary Malane, and Dante Sterling.

Skyline Theatre Company’s 2024 season in Bloomfield continues Friday, September 20 at 7pm with POPCORN FALLS also at The Little Theatre under the Bloomfield Children’s Library, 90 Broad Street in Bloomfield. Expect cascades of laughter during this zany and charming play, written by James Hindman, featuring two actors playing more than twenty roles in a world of farce, love and desperation. The sleepy town of Popcorn Falls is forced into bankruptcy when a neighboring town threatens to turn them into a sewage treatment plant. Their only hope: open a theater! The laugh-out-loud hysterics ultimately prove once and for all that art CAN save the world.

More information on the Skyline Theatre 2024 season is available through Skyline’s website and its social media channels. Please visit SkylineTheatreCompany.org or call the virtual box office at 1-800-474-1299.
