The show is cast, the plans are laid, and now we just need the money to bring our dreams to life!

Picture a world inspired by movies by Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal. A fantastical haunted glen, where two sisters embark in search of goblins.

Puppets, a living and breathing set created by our ensemble and best of all, Allyson Holmes and Jocelyn Duford’s absolutely exquisite vocals bringing the show to life.

Sound great? Sound unique to New Hampshire? Sound special? Please help us make it happen!

Because it’s closing, of course…leave them wanting more, right?

On November 22, Not Your Mom’s Musical Theater presents the final concert in its Something Wonderful I Missed concert series. The series has been sponsored in part by Appletree Business Services.

Audiences Agree - NH Premiere of Weird Romance Is Not To Be Missed

Opening night was a huge success – audiences found the show to have incredible and extremely well-executed music, with a cast of singer/dancers who mined the show for all of the character depth and emotion it’s worth.

Don’t miss your chance to see this show that will move, astonish, and make you think.

Doors open tonight at 7:30 – why not arrive early and have a great meal in downtown Derry (or visit our advertiser, Amphora, for great Greek food!) before the show? Please consider joining us and spread the word to your friends too.

I’m happy to report that not only is Musical of Musicals proceeding according to plan, but both The Telegraph and the Hippopress have interviewed us and are planning on running an article each on September 16th. In addition, the Hippo ran a short article on the forming of our theater company this past Thursday in the “Curtain Call” section on page 29. Thanks to everyone who has responded to our poll so far-it looks like Andrew Lloyd Webber is winning!
