Hi all, 

If the weather gods permit, we’re on for Sunday’s show at 4 p.m. If we do have to cancel or postpone the show until the evening,  you’ll see it here. In the meantime, here is what the town of Derry was able to suggest in terms of parking on Sunday in the snow. 

“Ron Robinson (Facilities Division) says that the Opera House
plaza and on-site sidewalks, and the main sidewalk on
Broadway right in front of the building will be cleared by
his crew before 4 pm, assuming the storm stops substantially
earlier than that.

The streets will be cleared.  He can’t comment on the snow
banks, on-street parking spaces or sidewalks throughout the
rest of the downtown.  That’s up to the Highway Division.
Ron recommends parking in the Abbot Court public parking
lot, behind some buildings on the opposite side of Broadway.
 It’s a short walk.”

Please use your judgement and stay safe, regardless. While the building is handicapped accessible, if the weather is awful, don’t test the limits of your abilities in the snow please! 

Reserve your seats (yes, we’re doing reserved seating, not general admission) by purchasing your tickets on our Coming Attractions page. 

Happy Friday!

Two quick updates in the world of NYMMT –

1. Auditions for 2013′ concert series, entitled Something Wonderful I Missed, will be January 28th. Come be a part of the innovative series that combines musical theater pieces from a given year with the often hilarious stories behind the shows!

2. Weird Romance has been cast, and it’s shaping up to be a phenomenal pair of shows! View the cast list here.

An amazing season subscription (two mainstage shows plus 5 concerts, all with reserved seating) goes on sale soon, and we’ll also be selling advance tickets for our concerts online.

Stay tuned and we hope you’ll join us on the 28th!

NYMMT is thrilled to kick off a season of sci-fi and fantasy with Weird Romance, the off-Broadway musical by Alan Menken and award-winning sci-fi writers. Some have compared it to the Twilight Zone, but ultimately it is two unexpected love stories, “speculative fiction” that imagines what could be in the not so distant future.

Here’s what our friends and followers are saying about this show:

“Love this show… Intelligent stories, great music… I am so glad someone is doing this locally!”

“This show has a very fun score – love the CD!!”

“This is one of my favorite shows of all time.”

“I loved doing this show…”

“Listened to one song and I’m sold”

So what are you waiting for? All the info you need on auditions for our show (Dec. 10 and 11) are available here. Hope to see you soon, and please spread the word so that we get an amazing cast!

Thank you so much to everyone who has come out to catch See What I Wanna See. We’ve loved hearing your feedback as you ponder who is telling the truth.

One more chance to take it all in, digest, and decide for yourself…and then party with us! You get all sorts of awesome stuff to take home too. Join us if you can, you won’t regret it! And dress up if you want to do the costume contest post-show. 🙂

This orchestra, this cast, this show….are unlike anything you’ve seen before.

If you haven’t gotten your tickets yet, what are you waiting for? You’ll get entered into a raffle if you purchase in advance, plus they’re cheaper…but you must purchase at least a full day in advance.

Purchase by this evening if you’re coming tomorrow to save $2 per ticket. That might buy you a beer at the show!

Here’s a message from the cast on why you should come see this show…or something like that. 🙂

Don’t miss the NH Premiere of this powerhouse of a musical!

Check out this fantastic podcast from the makers of Radiolab. This recent episode is pretty awesome and explores many of the themes we’ll be exploring next week.

And while we’re at it, have you bought your tickets yet? Don’t be left behind! This is a one of a kind show that will probably have you in deep discussion by intermission!

The cast and crew of See What I Wanna See (not to mention the phenomenal musicians) have been hard at work preparing for what is most likely the most challenging show any of them have attempted.

You thought Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson was innovative? You ain’t seen nothing yet.

This NH premiere, off-Broadway in 2004, re-tells three Japanese short stories exploring truth vs. fiction amidst themes of sex, murder, faith and mystery. Story #1 has a fantastic twist you will not expect. Story #2 may have you spending intermission debating the truth with your seatmates. And Story #3, exploring how we can have faith in the wake of events like 9/11, will stick with you for a long time to come.

Watch this short video, filmed and edited by BBAJ director Marc Murai, to get a glimpse of the musical and why you should see it. And once you’ve watched it, you can purchase your tickets HERE!

We don’t want to brag, but we have such a great evening cooked up for Sunday night! From a hilarious all-male number from Five Guys Named Moe, to some dynamite duets and solos that just might bring the house (or church) down, to fantastic numbers you might recognize from Falsettos and The Secret Garden, it’s going to be an amazing night. Actors from our past concerts are joined by newcomers Joel Iwaskiewicz, Elliot Owens, and Becky Rush, who made NH laugh in her performance as the Storyteller in  Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson

If you haven’t had time to join us yet, the concerts is this Sunday evening at 7 p.m. at the contemporary St. Peter’s Church, right next to Mack’s Apples in Londonderry, NH. It’s at 3 Peabody Row, and it’s right off exit 4 on 93. You could even go apple-picking before the show! Deb Shaw emcees an evening where you’ll learn some of the crazy history of the musicals running in 1992, while hearing some moving and just hysterically funny performances from some of the best. You can’t hear this stuff anywhere else, so please join us. Admission is a suggested donation of $10, or $5 for students, purchased at the door only. And we have a fantastic Audience Choice raffle where you decide what is performed and by who!

And while we’re at it…Tickets will be available on this website this week for our fall production, the NH Premiere of See What I Wanna See. This show will blow your mind. Scroll down for a few pics from our recent photo shoot.

Thanks for your support, and it isn’t too late to be an advertiser or producer and take that support a step further! Email us, as always, with any questions at notyourmoms@gmail.com. 

Hi friends,

Just a quick note to make sure you’ve heard about our performance in Ghostlight Theater Co.’s production of Mr. Marmalade. The show is at the NH Institute of Art’s French Auditorium, 148 Concord St. in Manchester, NH, and tickets are very affordable at only $13 or $8 for students/seniors. John Sefel directs a production that combines the original play Mr. Marmalade with a variety of other performances on the same theme, from poetry to music to art. Most of our BBAJ band reunites for this performance, although one of our bandmates won’t be at the Saturday matinee.

Shows are Thursday at 8, Friday at 8, and Sat. at 2. Lots of info at the Facebook page here, or you can get tickets at the door as well.

Hope to see you soon!
