Our Next Season?

The Sunset Players have lost their home! Upon reconstruction of the Sharon Community Center, the Senior Center will be taking over our theater space. Until we find a home, we will no longer be able to provide the town with quality, affordable theater. If and when we find new space, we plan to produce the following shows:

The Unexpected Guest
By Agatha Christie
Director TBD
Date TBD

When a stranger runs his car into a ditch in dense fog in South Wales and makes his way to an isolated house, he discovers a woman standing over the dead body of her wheelchair-bound husband, gun in her hand. She admits to murder, and the unexpected guest offers to help her concoct a cover story. But is it possible that Laura Warwick did not commit the murder after all? If so, whom is she shielding? The house seems full of possible suspects. The Unexpected Guest is considered one of Christie's finest plays.

Come Blow Your Horn
By Neil Simon
Director TBD
Date TBD

The Bakers are a prosperous Jewish family in the Yonkers district of New York with two very different sons. Buddy is a naive 26-year-old who lives with his parents and envies his fun-loving, womanizing, 33-year-old brother Alan. Both sons work for their father's artificial wax fruit business. Buddy, seeking to escape an overbearing father, a dysfunctional mother and a future in the wax fruit business, moves in with Alan and leaps head-long into his brother's luxurious lifestyle – and as he does so, finds his brother increasingly adopting his!! Bad timing and mistaken conclusions cause hilarity with a knowing wink at the joys—and challenges—of learning to “blow your (own) horn.”

The Last Night of Ballyhoo
By Alfred Uhry
Director TBD
Date TBD

The Last Night of Ballyhoo is a charming and bittersweet comedy set in Atlanta on the eve of World War II. It’s Christmas, 1939 and Gone With the Wind is having its world premiere and Hitler is invading Poland. Meanwhile, the most important thing in Boo Levy’s life is the question of who will be her daughter Lala’s date for the last night of Ballyhoo, the formal dance that crowns the party season for Atlanta’s Jewish society. The arrival of a handsome stranger from New York forces the Freitag family to deal with who they really are as they are pulled apart and mended again with plenty of gentle comedy, sweet romance, and unexpected turns. While maintaining its structure as a comedy, the play also deals in a very personal way with being Jewish in the South as well as exposing Southern anti-Semitism, including prejudice inflicted on Jews by other Jews. The Last Night of Ballyhoo won the 1997 Tony Award for best play, the 1997 Outer Critics Circle Award for best Broadway drama and the 1997 Drama League Award for distinguished production of a play.
