Spring Production in Cancelled . . . But Something Exciting is Coming


We're sad to announce that we had to cancel the spring Riverside Drama Production in order to limit possible risks associated with the COVID 19 pandemic.

However, the good news is that Jeff has finished a brand new script and we'll be premiering it when RDC returns.  The manuscript is very loosely based on Irving Washington's Rip Van Winkle.  It's not so much of a retelling of the Rip Van Winkle story as much as a re-imagination of the essence of Irving's story with a good dose of the 1980s mixed in. Which is to say, Jeff has taken great liberties with the literature. 

We look forward to everyone experiencing our next production of . . .
