ABOUT THE SHOW

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a nonstop laughfest in which Pseudolus, a crafty slave, struggles to win the hand of a beautiful, but slow-witted, courtesan named Philia for his young master, Hero, in exchange for freedom. The plot twists and turns with cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors and a showgirl or two.

ABOUT interACT THEATRE PRODUCTIONS ON THE RUN

interACT is the theatre in residence at The Baird Cultural Arts Center in South Orange, NJ. In 2019, the entire Baird building is closing for extensive renovations and will remain closed for a few years until the project is complete. During this time, we are proud to have the support of South Orange Middle School and The Burgdorff Center in allowing us to perform our mainstage productions "On The Run" in their spaces. If you or anyone you know has a space that would be willing to house us for our remaining March main-stage production slot, please contact AD Nick Clarey at nick@interactproductions.org.

This program is made possible in part by  funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a Partner .Agency of the National Endowment for the Arts and administered by the Essex County Division of Cultural and Historic Affairs.
