Parade
2025-09-05 08:00 - 2025-09-28 17:00 | The Broadway Theatre of Pitman, 43 S Broadway, Pitman, New Jersey, 08071, United States
“Parade”: A Haunting Journey Through American History

Price: $40.00 (Includes Tax + Service Fee) Dates: September 05 – September 28, 2025 Special Features: American Sign Language (ASL) interpreted performance available on the Orange date. Hearing enhancers are also provided at the tech booth for every performance, on a first-come, first-served basis (quantities are limited).

Prepare for a deeply moving and thought-provoking theatrical experience with “Parade,” the acclaimed Tony Award-winning musical. This powerful production delves into a dark chapter of America’s past, exploring the true story of Leo Frank, a Jewish factory manager wrongly accused of murder in 1913 Georgia amidst a backdrop of rampant religious intolerance, political injustice, and racial tension.

With a compelling book by the celebrated playwright Alfred Uhry, known for his Pulitzer Prize-winning “Driving Miss Daisy,” and a magnificent, haunting score by the three-time Tony Award winner Jason Robert Brown (composer of “Songs For a New World,” “The Last Five Years,” and “The Bridges of Madison County”), “Parade” is a masterclass in storytelling. It meticulously examines how prejudice and fear can distort justice, while simultaneously celebrating the enduring power of love and hope in the face of overwhelming adversity.

The musical is based on the infamous 1913 trial and subsequent lynching of Leo Frank. Frank, a Brooklyn-raised Jew living in Atlanta, was accused of killing 13-year-old Mary Phagan, an employee at the factory he managed. Fueled by sensationalist media and rampant antisemitism, the trial became a national scandal. Despite inconsistencies in testimony and a lack of credible evidence, Frank was convicted. His death sentence was later commuted by the governor, leading to his abduction from prison and lynching by an angry mob. “Parade” powerfully brings this harrowing narrative to the stage, reminding audiences of the dangers of unchecked bigotry and the fight for truth.

Important Note: This production is best suited for mature audiences aged 17 and above due to its exploration of sensitive historical themes, strong language, and mature content.

Socratic is an American rock band from Cranford and Linden, New Jersey, known for their unique blend of emo, indie rock, and pop punk. The band rose to prominence in the mid-2000s, recognized for their emotionally charged lyrics, piano-driven arrangements, and melodic instrumentation.
Their debut full-length album on Drive-Thru Records, Lunch for the Sky (2005), became a standout in the emo-pop scene. The record drew comparisons to artists like The Early November and The New Amsterdams, and was famously described by Alternative Press as “Jimmy Eat World overdosed on Meat Loaf.”

Al Stewart – The Farewell Tour with The Empty Pockets
2025-09-06 00:00 | Count Basie Center for the Arts, 99 Monmouth Street, Red Bank, New Jersey, 07701, United States
After Al’s US tour in 2019 with his band The Empty Pockets, he spent most of 2020 and 2021 sidelined due the COVID-19 pandemic. But in 2022, he came back full force with a string of sold out shows in the United States and United Kingdom, and he even made his debut in Israel. In 2023, he’ll continue his trek with several shows throughout the United States. He will be playing his old favorites, like Year Of The Cat, Time Passages, On the Border, Nostradamus and Roads To Moscow, along with selections from his deep catalogue.
The Scottish-born singer-songwriter has released nearly 20 introspective and lyrically powerful records featuring brilliant backing musicians (Jimmy Page, Phil Collins, Richard Thompson, Peter White, etc.). His biggest platinum successes, “Year Of The Cat” and “Time Passages”, were released in 1976 & 1978 respectively. He’s had several top 20 singles, including the above-mentioned titles, as well as “On the Border” and “Song On The Radio”.
In Al’s own Words: “I’m just a folk singer that is interested in history and wine that got lucky with some hit records! It’s as simple as that really. I was always a huge music fan and originally, I had wanted to be Brian Jones and then Bob Dylan, but those two jobs were already taken. And in many ways, I’m still pretty much the same troubadour that I was back in 1965. I still get a kick out of hearing the Zombies, Hendrix or They Might be Giants on the radio.”

The Plot In You
2025-09-07 00:00 | Starland Ballroom, 570 Jernee Mill Rd, Sayreville, New Jersey, 08872, United States
Through balancing even the most extreme dynamics, The Plot In You consistently overturn and upend expectations. On any given track, it might seem like they’re about to go one way, but the band will turn on a dime and shift course before the crowd can even catch a breath. This uncanny element of surprise has entrenched the gold-selling Ohio quartet—Landon Tewers [vocals], Josh Childress [guitar], Ethan Yoder [bass], and Michael Cooper [drums] — on the cutting edge of rock music. Whether it be threads of alternative, electronic, pop, or R&B, nothing is off limits, and everything is fair game for their creative process. That process has continued to morph. Following a series of fan-favorite releases, the band made major waves with DISPOSE [2018]. “FEEL NOTHING” surged on social media as a viral phenomenon, generating hundreds of millions of streams and picking up a gold certification in the U.S., Canada and Australia. The musicians only maintained this momentum with Swan Song in 2021. Hysteria rated it “9-out-of-10”. Simultaneously, they sold out shows coast-to-coast.
During 2023, the band kickstarted another era with Vol. 1. “Divide” having generated 16 million Spotify streams and counting followed by “Left Behind”, exploding to the tune of 31 million Spotify streams with no signs of slowing down. Upon the arrival of “Forgotten”, Revolver praised it among the “6 Best New Songs Right Now.” The Plot In You’s Vol. 2 EP is a powerful showcase of the band’s evolution, blending raw emotion with polished musicality and stands as a testament to The Plot In You’s growth and artistic maturity, captivating listeners with its intense yet introspective narratives with tracks “Closure”, “Don’t Look Away”, and “All That I Can Give” further solidifying their place as one of the genre’s most compelling acts.
Now with the impending arrival of their new EP, Vol. 3, the band is set to captivate fans once again. Featuring three compelling tracks, the lead single “Been Here Before” explores the emotional turbulence of relationships, weaving a narrative of enduring the highs and lows. “Spare Me” delves into the heavy burden of societal pressures and the palpable guilt that comes from feeling helpless in the face of overwhelming news. “Pretend” offers a raw look at the world’s current state, channeling a sense of disillusionment and examining the disengagement of looking away from the tragedies that are happening daily. Vol. 3 promises to be a powerful addition to the band’s discography, reflecting their knack for tackling profound themes with sincerity and intensity.
