MARK TWAIN TELLS ALL
Saturday, November 7 | 3:00 PM
Lemon Bay Playhouse

The wit. The wisdom. The unforgettable stories.

Step back in time and spend an afternoon with one of America’s most beloved humorists and storytellers, Mark Twain!

Acclaimed performer Alan Kitty brings the legendary author to life in a fascinating, funny, and delightfully unpredictable one-man show.

Portraying Twain since 1979, Kitty draws from the author’s journals, autobiography, writings, and remarkable life to create an entertaining experience filled with humor, history, and a little audience participation!

And here’s the fun part… No two performances are quite alike! With the audience helping shape the conversation, there’s no telling where Mark Twain might take you!

BROOKLYN LAUNDRY
By John Patrick Shanley

Lemon Bay Playhouse is looking for talented actors to bring this funny, touching, and deeply human story to life!

From Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning playwright John Patrick Shanley comes Brooklyn Laundry, a heartfelt story about love, loss, family, and the unexpected connections that can change our lives.

Filled with sharp New York humor, unforgettable characters, and moments that will make you laugh one minute and reach for a tissue the next, Brooklyn Laundry offers wonderful opportunities for actors who love rich, emotionally layered roles.

UPDATE!! Date of Friday, October 16 is confirmed ! Get your tickets !

On every production, a little rain must fall… but THE SHOW MUST GO ON!

Live theater is full of surprises, and sometimes the biggest drama happens behind the scenes!

Due to an unexpected medical emergency, our upcoming production of Bell, Book and Candle has experienced a last-minute cast change, requiring a slight adjustment to our opening schedule.

But if there’s one thing theater people know how to do, it’s rise to the occasion!

We are incredibly grateful to our talented cast and crew, especially the actors who have stepped into new roles with less than a week to prepare. That’s dedication, determination, and a whole lot of theatrical magic!

Our newly scheduled preview performance for our volunteers will take place Thursday, October 15, at 7:30 PM . This performance will also serve as our dress rehearsal, (some actors may still be working with scripts in hand)
We are hoping 🤞to have our opening night on Friday October 16…

We appreciate your patience, understanding, and continued support as we put the finishing touches on this enchanting production.

After all, a little magic, a little mayhem, and a whole lot of heart are what live theater is all about!

Stay tuned for opening night updates !

 ( If you already purchased tickets Wednesday or Thursday this week please contact the box office office )

MEET PYEWACKET — THE CAT WITH A SECRET!

Every great witch needs a familiar. And every great production needs a scene-stealer.

Meet Pyewacket, the mysterious, blue-eyed feline of BELL, BOOK AND CANDLE!

He doesn’t have any lines. He doesn’t attend rehearsals. And he absolutely refuses to take direction.

But don’t be fooled by that innocent face. Pyewacket knows a thing or two about magic, mischief, and matters of the heart.

In fact, he may just be the most powerful character in the entire show!

What happens when a beautiful witch falls in love with an ordinary mortal? Let’s just say Pyewacket has a paw in the proceedings!

BELL, BOOK AND CANDLE
October 14 – November 1, 2026

Come for the romance. Stay for the magic. And keep your eye on the cat.

P.S. No autographs, please. Pyewacket is notoriously difficult to work with.

There’s something I love about this moment…

The set is finished. Every picture is hung, every prop is in its place, the furniture is set and the stage is quiet.

It’s just sitting there… waiting to come alive.

Soon there will be footsteps across that floor, laughter, voices, magic and an audience watching this beautiful room become part of a story.

For now, it’s that wonderful calm before the curtain rises.

The stage is set. Now all it needs is a little magic.

Bell, Book and Candle is almost here at Lemon Bay Playhouse.
