CAPE MAY – East Lynne Theater Company’s much anticipated Student Workshop Production is back!
After 24 hours of rehearsal covering nine days, twelve students, ages 10-14, will perform “The Dancing Princesses” based on the tale by the Brothers Grimm at The First Presbyterian Church of Cape May, 500 Hughes St., where the company is in residence. The date is July 1, at 8:00 p.m. This marks ELTC’s 8th Summer Student Workshop Production, and the past seven years it’s been standing room only. Admission is free and families are welcome.
Directing the production is Sally Bingham, who also adapted “The Dancing Princesses.” She has just completed her second year as ELTC’s artist-in-residence for the Wildwood after-school program, and headed up the Summer Student Workshop last year. Providing choreography is Beckly Andrews who is in ELTC’s mainstage production of “The First Fifty Years” with Samuel Douglas Clark. Her numerous professional work includes being in the Broadway production of “Gypsy” starring Patti LuPone. Assisting are ELTC’s artistic director Gayle Stahlhuth and technical director Lee O’Connor.
Meanwhile, ELTC’s “The First Fifty Years,” directed by Stahlhuth, continues on ELTC’s mainstage through July 19, every Wednesday through Saturday at 8:30 p.m., except there is no show on July 4 and an added show July 6.

Cape May – Governor Murphy says he doesn't know anything about the drones and doesn't know what they are doing but he does know that they are not dangerous. Does anyone feel better now?
