Misery by William Goldman adapted from Stephen King's novel | Oct 24 - Nov 9, 2025
About the show

By William Goldman adapted from the novel by Stephen King

Oct 24 - Nov 9, 2025

Stephen King’s best-selling psychological thriller and Oscar-winning film is now a spine-chilling Broadway play! Truth is stranger than fiction when a famous romance novelist veers off the road in a winter storm and wakes up incapacitated in the home of his “number-one fan”.  Unexpected events turn his number-one fan into his number-one enemy and a heart-pounding life or death game of cat and mouse ensues. Public Theatre policy requires you to pay for your entire seat - even though you’ll only be using the edge.

Jan 30 - Feb 8, 2026

Lost love is rekindled in this funny, heartbreaking, sexy and smart story when a couple who broke up in their 30’s reunite in their 60’s. But what happens if you love someone but hate the things they believe? Is love enough to overcome our differences? Second chances are given, secrets revealed, and an avocado goes flying in the Maine premiere of this recent Off-Broadway hit and Outer Critic’s Circle nominee for Best New American Play. It’s the perfect show for this moment in time.

From the author of Halfway There and Lunenburg comes the US premiere of a hilarious and heartwarming new comedy about love, family and significant others. When a widowed father summons his grown children home to share some “big news”, they are convinced he must be dying – why else would he pay for the plane tickets? But dad has good news - he’s fallen in love and wants to introduce her!  Whether you’re a parent or a child, this delightfully funny comedy about the way we expand our hearts to expand our family is for you.

About the show

by Catherine Bush

May 8-17, 2026
In 1955 at the age of 67, Emma “Grandma” Gatewood told her children she was “going for a walk.” and set out with her duffel bag, shower curtain (to keep dry) and a pair of Ked’s sneakers to walk the Appalachian Trail. Two thousand miles later, she became the first woman to solo hike 14 states from Georgia to the top of Mt Katahdin in Maine. Don’t miss the New England premiere of this true and inspiring adventure celebrating the resiliency of the human spirit and the courage required to walk into the unknown.
