August 18th - September 3rd
On Golden Pond
by Earnest Thompson
Directed by David W. Mitchell
This is the love story of Ethel and Norman Thayer, who are returning to their summer home on Golden Pond for the forty-eighth year.
He is a retired professor, nearing eighty, with heart palpitations and a failing memory - but still as tart-tongued and eager for life as ever. Ethel is ten years younger, and delights in all the small things that have enriched their long life together.
They are visited by their middle-aged daughter and fiancé, who leave his teenage son behind for the summer.
The boy quickly becomes the grandchild the elderly couple never had, and as Norman revels in taking him fishing and thrusting good books at him, he also learns some lessons about himself.
