Up next: Jason Tardy, Juggler Extraordinaire!
Wednesday, September 2, 2026 2:30 PM
Pay-what-you-can: Suggested price $20

A crazy high-energy, comedy and juggling show like you’ve never seen before!

Jason Tardy is a multifaceted performer who uses his strength (he juggles three 10lb bowling balls), intelligence (skipped a year of high school and was valedictorian), endurance (two-time 100 mile ultramarathon finisher), and skill (he has no social life so he practices a lot) to create a crazy high-energy, comedy and juggling show like you’ve never seen before…unless you’ve seen him before. His hilarious show includes innovative choreographed juggling to up-beat music, fitting his body through a tennis racket, balancing a ladder on his face, standing on a yoga ball, and if you trust him enough; fire eating and fire breathing!

Up next: Ida LeClair in "Down to the A & P"
Sunday, August 23 - 2:30 pm

Written by Susan Poulin with Gordon Carlisle
Performed by Susan Poulin
Directed by David Kaye

Join Ida as she celebrates her fifty years as a cashier down to the A&P. She'll fill you in on how she got started, what keeps her coming back year after year and how she's feeling about that old question of retirement. Down to the A&P, there are lots of laughs, of course, and more drama and intrigue than you'd think. Heck, as the only supermarket in Mahoosuc Mills, everyone passes through, eccentric locals and wacky tourists alike. And Ida has a front row seat to all of it: the good, the bad and the ugly. Ida just loves the A&P, and you will, too!

Next up: Novel Jazz Septet, Wednesday, August 19th, 3 pm! Tickets are pay-what-you-can: suggested price $25.

https://www.sacorivertheatre.org/performances-events/novel-jazz-septet-f9ytx

Novel Jazz is a group of Maine-based musicians with over two centuries of collective musical experience performing swinging jazz from the Great American Songbook. The year 2026 marks the 22nd anniversary of the Septet. They specifically focus on the great works of Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, ranked as two of America’s all-time finest composers (not just within the jazz genre, either!). Using historic recordings, plus regular trips to the Duke Ellington Collection at the Smithsonian Museum as well as the Strayhorn Collection at the Library of Congress, Washington, D.C., Novel Jazz has collected and arranged selected works from the several-thousand-composition repertoire of these two prolific composers. Concerts include both the music plus the rich history behind each piece... literally the very foundations that made jazz what it is today!
