SUMMARY:POW! Presents Paul Rudnick's "The New Century"
DESCRIPTION:PLAYS OF WILTON! PRESENTS PAUL RUDNICK’S THE NEW CENTURY\nMeet the people you’d never invite to the same party… and thank goodness someone did.\nPlays of Wilton! (POW!) presents Paul Rudnick’s The New Century\, a wildly funny comedy bursting with unforgettable characters\, outrageous laughs and enough heart to surprise you.\nSmart\, silly and gloriously over-the-top\, The New Century brings together a group of people who could hardly seem more different — until Rudnick reveals just how much they have in common.\nThere’s Helene\, an outspoken Long Island mother who proudly proclaims herself the “most loving mother of all time” to her three children; Mr. Charles\, an extravagantly theatrical gay man who has retreated to Palm Beach after discovering that a younger generation of gay men finds him “too gay”; and Barbara Ellen\, a Midwestern craftswoman whose cheerful collection of handmade creations masks the profound loss of a son to AIDS.\nTheir stories begin separately but ultimately collide in unexpected and hilarious circumstances as Rudnick asks where this “new century” might be heading — and who gets to come along for the ride.\nThe result is unmistakably Paul Rudnick: rapid-fire one-liners\, outrageous characters and fearless comedy wrapped around something far more poignant — a look at LGBTQ+ identity across generations\, the families we are born into and create for ourselves\, and the ways humor can help us survive grief\, prejudice and change.\nWhen The New Century premiered at Lincoln Center Theater in 2008\, critics quickly recognized Rudnick’s ability to combine outrageous comedy with genuine emotional weight.\n The New York Times: “The one-liners fly like rockets.”  TheaterMania: “A laugh on every line.”  New York Post: “Gut-busting one-liners.”\nRudnick has said that he never intended The New Century to feel like simply a collection of unrelated one-act plays\, but rather stories that “intertwine” and build into a complete theatrical experience.\nFunny\, provocative\, touching and proudly excessive\, The New Century is a comedy about people carrying the experiences of one generation into the next — the losses\, the battles\, the absurdities\, the hard-won freedoms and\, above all\, the laughter.\nPOW! alumni returning to The Foundry include Beverly Blanchette\, Michael Gillespie\, Betty Ann Hunt Strain and John Provasnik\, along with director Greg Schuh. Making her POW! mainstage debut is Stephanie Manner.\n“Paul Rudnick manages to be outrageous\, smart and incredibly funny while still finding the heart underneath all those laughs\,” said Joseph Guidetti\, Associate Producer of Plays of Wilton! “The New Century feels like a perfect POW! play — unapologetically gay\, a little outrageous\, and ultimately about people finding a way to understand and love one another.”\n“I first came to know Paul Rudnick through the movie Jeffrey\, but once I discovered his plays\, I fell in love with his writing\,” said director Greg Schuh. “His work is an actor’s and director’s dream — funny\, fearless and deeply emotional — and The New Century takes us on a wonderful ride through growing up\, loving\, coming out and being loved.”\n THE NEW CENTURY – Written by Paul Rudnick – Directed by Greg Schuh\n October 2–25\, 2026 The Foundry at Plays of Wilton! Thursday through Saturday at 8 PM Sunday at 3 PM\n Tickets: https://app.tickettailor.com/events/ronnielarsenpresents/2329837\n Suitable for ages 18+ Brief male nudity

SUMMARY:The Haunt: Family-Friendly Twilight at The Venue
DESCRIPTION:The Haunt’s Family-Friendly Twilight experience returns this Halloween season at its new indoor home\, The Venue in Fort Lauderdale. Designed for younger thrill-seekers\, this gentler version of The Haunt offers a walk through one haunted house with milder scares\, giving families a chance to enjoy the spooky scenery together. All child tickets include trick-or-treating\, so little ones can collect sweets along the way. Recommended for children ages 10 and under with a sense of adventure and a little bravery\, Twilight is a not-so-scary introduction to haunted house fun. Adult tickets are $15 and child tickets are $25. Haunted house entry ends promptly at 5:30 PM\, so allow time to park and check in. Strollers are not permitted inside the haunted house.
