Read MoreGeorge Street Playhouse is thrilled to be your first-look destination for the new Broadway-bound musical A Walk on the Moon, based on the award-winning hit film. Welcome to a Jewish bungalow colony in the Catskills during the tie-dyed, moon-landing summer of 1969. Housewife Pearl Kantrowitz is on her usual summer vacation with her family, but poised to take a giant leap of her own. While contending with a rebellious teenage daughter, a know-it-all mother-in-law, and a loving husband content with the status quo, Pearl must choose between staying grounded or launching into the unknown. With pulse-pounding new songs that meld the sounds of the 60s with modern pop and rock sensibilities, you won’t want to miss your chance to visit New Brunswick's state-of-the-art new performing arts center for a blockbuster show you'll have to see to believe.
This show contains brief nudity.
Runtime: 2 hours and 30 minutes, including one 15-minute intermission.

The mission for producers Ruth and Stephen Hendel, Tony-nominated director Sheryl Kaller, and the cast and crew is to take the not-so-small step from the Elizabeth Ross Johnson Theatre stage at the New Brunswick Performing Arts Center to Broadway.
