The Buddy Holly Story was a marvelous show. Cast of very talented singers, musicians and dancers. And of course a large dose of nostalgia and memories.

Last evening we had the rare treat of bringing my family to an exceptionally well produced version of Rogers & Hammerstein's Cinderella. As an avid theatergoer with years of professional experience I give my unqualified "double thumbs up" to a remarkable, professional rendition of this classic musical. Every aspect of the production - acting, singing, and dancing; production values, and overall ambience of the theater-going experience were par excellence. And although the theater held a sell-out crowd of 1800, the proximity of a large segment of the audience to the stage action (intertwined with liberal use of aisles) qualifies the experience as an intimate performance. The genuine enthusiasm of the ushers and theater personnel transmit a family business vibe immediately - most welcoming to the patrons, and especially younger ones. I defy any professional production to best the startling quality of the vocals - dead on in terms of intonation and timbre, all aided and abetted by a tastefully mixed audio production and sound design, and an amazing pit orchestra which never overpowered and always delivered. A special shout out to Kevin Hill, Producing Artistic Director who executed a choreographic tour de force in that most challenging of stage environments - theater-in-the-round, and masterfully executed by an enchanting cast . Costumes, lighting, special effects - all on a high level of professionalism. Thank you for a great evening out. HIGHLY recommended.

First things first. It is a theater in the round. A technically marvelous and seamless rendition of such. I went to see smokin Joe's cafe. The actors and actresses were exceptionally talented and had proper chops. The lighting was highly competent and did not overwhelm in an uncomfortable way. I will most definitely return.

Your ad for The Buddy Holly Story plays "La Bamba". I get that Valens was with him when he died, but if this is the Buddy Holly story, wouldn't it be more appropriate to play Buddy Holly?

Is the orchestra music live or recorded? Where in the theatre is the live orchestra located?

Eleanor Brisson | Jul 22, 2022
Bob Zwolinski | Jul 22, 2022

A live orchestra is located adjacent to the stage. The heads of the musicians are roughly at the level of the stage. Depending upon where you're sitting you may not be able to see them but the sound is in no way affected.

Will the Garden Bistro be open tomorrow, Wednesday June 8 before the play at 2 PM?

Are there tickets for Titanic

Esther Gentile | Aug 22, 2019
Matthew Eriksen | Aug 22, 2019

Unfortunately, Titanic played for two performances, both to packed houses. Each day was completely sold out. Be sure to get your tickets early to ensure the best seats for NSMT's musicals! Online is the fastest method, but calling the box office is a breeze, too.

Jim Destefano | Aug 22, 2019
Chris Perron | Aug 22, 2019

What can of food can you get onsite prior to the performance?

A Google User | Aug 22, 2019
Matthew Eriksen | Aug 22, 2019

The Backstage Bistro is NSMT's full-service restaurant, open before every performance up on the hill—they also serve a fabulous Sunday Brunch Buffet. For quick-service options, the theatre features your standard concessions (two bars serving popcorn, candy, cookies, pretzels, beer, wine, cocktails), as well as a Cafe for coffee and baked goods. My personal suggestion is the Garden Bistro for items made to order on the grill or sandwiches. In the summer/autumn, sitting in the courtyard and gardens with a few bites is quite relaxing for pre-show. Have fun!
