Two More Musicals in Our Smaller-Cast Safer Season

May 14-23, 2021 August 6-15, 2021 Sponsored by Judy Hall, Travis Moore, Sponsored by and John & Melanie Toppe Karen Johnston

SEASON SPONSOR: Kate Tiedemann & Ellen Cotton We’re Glad You’re Here!

EOT and the Central Park Performing Arts Center are making the best and safest possible plan for next season. Rehearsing in large numbers would remove the possibility of maintaining social distancing and increase risk. We’ve made some VERY exciting changes in our lineup and trust that you will be equally excited about our “small” shows! Also, the Center has made the decision to maintain the cabaret-style seating plan for the entire season making social distancing possible. If you have renewed your season tickets, the box office will call to discuss cabaret-seating arrangements. If you would still like to renew, please call the box office (727-587-6793) as soon as possible. All seating choices from last season will be held for you next season, when we hopefully resume normal theatre-style seating.
