Broadway comes to Ridgefield!

Ruthless! The Musical, the 1993 Off-Broadway hit, has been revamped and is making its pre-NY workshop debut at the Theater Barn. Tickets are now available for this world premiere event!

The Ridgefield Theater Barn is proud to present the world premiere of the pre-New York workshop of Ruthless! The Musical, by Joel Paley and Marvin Laird.  The creative duo direct and musically direct this production, respectively, and have re-worked their original 1993 Off-Broadway hit in anticipation of an upcoming run in New York.  Performances will be Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings at 8pm, January 17th through the 27th, with Sunday matinees at 2pm. 

 

The winner of the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Lyrics and the New York Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Off-Broadway Musical, Ruthless! was ahead of it’s time in exploring the subject of children (and the parents of children) in show business.  Before there was Toddlers and Tiaras, there was Ruthless! The Musical.  Some kids will do anything to get the part. Anything!

 

Tickets are $26/adults and $22/students and seniors.  Seating is cabaret style and doors open one hour prior to curtain.  Audience members are invited to bring food and drink to enjoy before the show and during intermission.  Reservations can be made at www.ridgefieldtheaterbarn.org

MAc Thunder Hill believes that anyone who has had a drink -spends his day on a bar stool and doesRead More nothing else? Obama smoke pot-- lets minimize his endeavors to 'sitting around smoking pot' We more or less can understand who Obama's base is. It's people who think dignity to the white house is a desecration of the constitution --an assault on the first amendment, 2nd amendment, 10th amendment----as well as a push to sidestep the balance of powers by ignoring the laws passed in congress and then denigrating the Supreme Court on the basis they may disagree with his power grab. And hey--we had prisoners who were waterboarded--which totally took away dignity from the white house. This PResident just decides he can kill Americans overseas---no need for trials (4 of them that they admitted to)--so yeah -thats totally what this country is for-- we no longer worry about arrests and trials -we just presume guilt and kill them . Yeee HAA cowboy obama.

I believe most Americans would rather have JOBS, a growing economy, lower fuel and energy prices,Read More "transparency," a government (and president) which does not use thuggery and naked power--UNLAWFULLY--to TARGET and discriminate against taxpaying Americans, a competent foreign policy and CIC who helps keep Americans SAFE, which is potus' prime responsibility! They disagree with you and your silly, distorted view of "dignity" in the WH. A president like O, who is in perpetual campaign mode, who is an angry narcissist, whose daily "work" schedule usually starts around 10:30 or 11 a.m. and ends soon after lunch and photo ops--and who bows to foreign kings and sheiks--hardly qualifies as bringing "dignity" to the presidency!

I disagree. I think Obama does a pretty good job. For one thing, he's brought dignity back to theRead More Whitehouse. Would you really be pleased if your children grew up to be like George Bush? I mean look at the man. Ten years before he was President he was sitting on a bar stool doing nothing with his life. Now after his Presidency, he's an artist painting pictures of himself in the shower. Gimme a break. Through some fluke of nature, somewhere in between there he became President of the United States. You couldn't make this stuff up, but that doesn't make it any less embarrassing. Thank goodness Obama came along and gave America some dignity.

Way to go lawn sprayers Thunder hill is just a constant whiner.
Thunder Hill May 23, 2013 at 01:16 pm
People, stop spraying your lawns with chemicals! Cancer rates in CT are higher than other states.Read More That's because we have the money to spray our lawns and turn them into green perfection. But it can kill you and your kids. Just stop it already. Is your grass more important than the health of your family?
Porter Gladstone III May 24, 2013 at 07:35 pm
Thunder Hill? You mean so you make sense? As in --when you write complaints on 5 other threads,Read More yet then distill another person's comments as not worthy of consideration -to be just 'whining?' Lisa --i dont think we should discriminate on the basis of age. But maybe we should place a threshold of 88 IQ to be able to post? That might make sense--- a lot more sense than one guy I see making absurd commentary anyway?
Thunder Hill May 24, 2013 at 01:53 pm
Lisa, with the new Patch format, maybe you should think about setting a minimum age requirement.
Porter Gladstone III May 23, 2013 at 10:34 pm
"ignore the whiners" haha--dude-- thats all you do
Porter Gladstone III May 23, 2013 at 10:32 pm
nice job boe thunder hill whines about everything
Thunder Hill May 23, 2013 at 01:13 pm
No money for the classrooms? A shame. Ridgefield's BOE just donated $25,000 of taxpayer money toRead More yet another artificial turf field. Gee, that works out to about $480 per classroom - exactly what the teachers have to spend out of their pockets on YOUR kids. Lesson: Money for sports? Yes. Money for the classroom. No.
