The Pajama Game!

New England Youth Theatre presents “THE PAJAMA GAME” August 6-14th.  The Pajama Game is a musical written by George Abbott and based on the novel 7-1/2 Cents by Richard Bissell featuring a score by Richard Adler and Jerry Ross.
The story deals with labor troubles in a pajama factory, where workers’ demands for a seven-and-a-half cent raise are going unheeded. In the midst of this ordeal, love blossoms between Babe, who is the grievance committee head, and Sid, the new factory superintendent.

A perennial audience favorite, the original production won a Tony for Best Musical, and the 2006 Broadway revival won a Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical.
NEYT founder Stephen Stearns directs, with a stellar line-up of alumni, including musical directors Nick Bombicino & Louisa Sullivan and choreographer Shoshanna Bass.

Evening performances are Friday and Saturday August 6 and 7, and Tuesday through Saturday August 10-14 at 7pm.  Mattinees will be held at 2 PM on Saturday August 7, Sunday August 8, and Saturday August 14th.

Tickets prices for students are $7.50, seniors $9.50, and adults $11.50.
You may purchase advance tickets on the NEYT website at www.neyt.org and at the NEYT box office on Wednesdays from 12-5 PM.  Tickets may also be purchased at the door.
