Bucks County Playhouse’ in New Hope, Pa., announced its s 2018 Season Preview
Closing out the Bucks County Playhouse’s 2018 Season, the theater will conclude with two more productions.
Million Dollar Quartet – through Sept. 15
Directed by Hunter Foster
On Dec. 4, 1956, an unlikely quartet of Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Carl Perkins accidently converged on Sun Records in Memphis — and made magic in the process! Million Dollar Quartet takes you behind the music with a monumental night that explodes off the stage with a talented cast playing 21 legendary hits including “Blue Suede Shoes,” “Walk the Line,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “Folsom Prison Blues,” “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On,” and “Hound Dog.”
I Hate Hamlet – Nov. 8 – Dec. 1
Directed by Marc Bruni
Hot Hollywood actor Andrew Rally, star of a recently cancelled TV series, arrives in New York to play “Hamlet” in Central Park and moves into the outrageously Gothic Greenwich Village apartment once owned by John Barrymore. While Andy loves the city, the theater and stardom … he hates “Hamlet.” He is ready to flee to L.A. when the ghost of Barrymore unexpectedly appears. The laughs are non-stop as Barrymore takes his would-be successor under his wing — tutoring him in Shakespearean acting, life and love.
