​​The Cemetery Club (September 19 thru October 4) 

Three Jewish widows meet once a month for tea before going to visit their husbands’ graves. Ida is sweet tempered and ready to begin a new life; Lucille is a feisty embodiment of the girl who just wants to have fun; and Doris is priggish and judgmental, particularly when Sam the butcher enters the scene. He meets the widows while visiting his wife’s grave. Doris and Lucille squash the budding romance between Sam and Ida. They are guilt-stricken when this nearly breaks Ida’s heart. The Broadway production starred Eileen Heckart as Lucille. It was made into a film, starring Ellen Burstyn, Dianne Ladd and Olympia Dukkakis.

The Cemetery Club opened on Broadway at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre in New York City on May 12, 1990. This production was originally presented by Howard Hurst, Philip Rose, Sophie Hurst, and David Brown at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., on March 30, 1990. It was directed by Pamela Berlin.

A Gift To Remember (December 5-20) On Christmas Eve a train develops engine trouble forcing the passengers to stop at a tiny depot in New Hampshire. A sailor heads to Texas to “pop” the question; A salesman, to LA to patch things up a marriage; a widow to Boston to be with family; a man and his wife to Maryland for the birth of their first grandchild; and the list goes on. Disappointed and dispirited at first, they find ways to celebrate the true spirit of Christmas. Through patience, understanding and humor they realize this night will be a gift to remember. ​​
