"A rollicking, joyous evening!" - St. Louis Post Dispatch

Through music from the 1930s and ‘40s, staged in the intimate Triton Hall Pavilion in Santa Clara, audiences will be transported to the funky jive of Harlem and the Cotton Club to the sophisticated elegance of El Morocco and the romance of the Stage Door Canteen. This strut is filled with jive, jazz, blues, and classic songs and standards that have become signatures of 20th century American music, including Hit That Jive, Jack; In The Mood; Fascinating Rhythm; Ain’t Misbehavin’; Minnie the Moocher; Shoo, Shoo, Baby; The White Cliffs of Dover; and As Time Goes By. A great way to celebrate the 2006 Holiday Season!

Mr. Pim Passes By

By A.A. Milne

Written by A. A. Milne long before he ever thought of Christopher Robin or his friend Winnie the Pooh, MR. PIM PASSES BY is a delightful long-forgotten comedy for grown-ups about grown-ups. This engaging and very enchanting comedy is filled with witty, sophisticated dialogue and deliciously humorous scenes of love and marriage that will charm and amuse, as Milne explores childish behavior in the seemingly most mature adults among us.

Staged in the intimate Triton Hall Pavilion in Santa Clara, the audience will be a fly on the wall as they witness the wondrous way great events can spring from little causes put into motion by the sweet and befuddled Mr. Pim. This is a smart and frothy comedy in the tradition of Oscar Wilde, Noel Coward, and Philip Barry.

“Far more relevant than many contemporary ‘relationship’ plays and as brisk and refreshing as a summer breeze.” - The Boston Globe

Performances: September 8 - 16 at Triton Hall Pavilion in Santa Clara

  
Designated Non-Profit: We are proud to support the Bill Wilson Center as our designated non-profit organization for Mr. Pim Passes By.
