Stage shows
Queen City Improv at the Hatbox Theatre on Aug. 11 at 7:30 p.m.
Bubble Boy will run through Aug. 14 at the Hatbox Theatre with shows Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. Based on the film of the same name starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Bubble Boy tells the story of Jimmy Livingston, a Palmdale teen with an immune deficiency that has confined him to life sequestered alone in a plastic bubble with his mother. That is until Chloe Molinski moves to town.
The Great Atlantic Pacific Shakespeare Company will run Aug. 19 to 28 at the Hatbox Theatre with shows Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. The Great Atlantic and Pacific Shakespeare Company’s co-founders and biggest stars, and erstwhile lovers, Biron and Rose, struggle to maintain focus. Biron can’t get past the death of his wife two years earlier – a death he is convinced he caused by having an affair with Rose. He has taken refuge in religion, making regular retreats to a nearby monastery and the dubious ministrations of the enigmatic Brother Rene. Tired of waiting for Biron, Rose has found a retreat of her own on a Caribbean yacht with a smarmy lawyer. Can Rose and Biron work out their differences – or will their bickering mean the end of “The Great A&P”?
