The Paper Mill Playhouse began their 75th Anniversary season this past week with the show Honeymoon in Vegas. The show, which is based off the movie with the same title, is actually premiering at the New Jersey theater which also gave Newsies its start. I don’t think it would be gambling to say that I think this show is a real winner. It has good music, a tremendous cast, very clever staging and special effects. To sum it all up, it’s a show that combines humor with a heart warming message in an audience-friendly package.

Following the Opening Night performance of Honeymoon in Vegas on Sunday evening, October 6th, an after party was held in Millburn. The center of town was closed off to create a block party atmosphere. The red carpet was outside the tent, refreshments were available in Martini’s restuarant, seating and music were inside the tent.
