SUMMARY:Tiaras Over Teaneck at The Milford Arts Council
DESCRIPTION:Pantochino Productions Inc. debuts its newest original musical comedy\, Tiaras Over Teaneck\, on Friday\, April 25\, 2025\, at the Milford Arts Council\, The MAC\, in Downtown Milford. Performances run through May 11\, promising a fast-paced\, laugh-out-loud experience for audiences 13 and older. \nWith book and lyrics by Bert Bernardi and music by Justin Rugg\, Tiaras Over Teaneck follows two teenage beauty pageant contestants and their high-strung mothers en route to Atlantic City. When their journey is halted at a roadside motel in Teaneck during the East Coast blackout of 1965\, chaos ensues. Slamming doors\, mistaken identities\, and over-the-top antics are all part of the fun in this farcical new production. \nThe cast features Pantochino favorites including Mary Mannix\, Shelley Marsh Poggio\, Maria Berte\, Valerie Solli\, and Jimmy Johansmeyer\, along with Sydney Yargeau and Leanne Onofrio in the roles of the pageant hopefuls. Direction is by Bernardi\, with musical direction by Rugg\, and design elements from Von Del Mar\, Jakob Kelsey\, and Tyler Kittleman. \nPerformances take place Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 pm\, and Sundays at 2:00 pm. Seating is cabaret-style and audiences are welcome to bring their own food and drink. The MAC is located at 40 Railroad Avenue\, Milford\, CT 06460\, with free parking in all train station lots during showtimes. \nTickets are available exclusively at www.pantochino.com. Tickets are not sold through the Milford Arts Council box office.
