Producers are Corey Jackson, Jane Kelley, Mike Crounse and Dave Solimine Jr.The production will feature a live band, props that will bring back Catholic school memories, full habits and a variety show surprise or two from the sisters.”It is exciting to see, after the success of Evil Dead in the fall and our recent appearance on Chronicle, that the city is really coming out for this one,” said Jane Kelley. “Our subscriptions are up year over year over 200 percent. For this production we will be adding additional table seating in the front.” In addition to increased patronage, Arts After Hours is proud to be partnering with many local businesses to help bring high quality theatre to downtown Lynn.”Without the individuals and companies that have been so generous over the past few years, we’d have never been able to grow this fast,” Jackson said. “We thank you all and hope you enjoy the kick off to Season 3.”If You Go?
