Melodrama 2025

NEYT’s most popular summer camp brings the merriment and madness! Join the NEYT Junior Company on July 3rd and July 5th for this pay-what-you-can Melodrama Double Feature! Fun for the whole family!

Murder a la Mode: The coffee’s hot, the hats are high fashion—and there’s a body in the broom closet. On the eve of Le Grand Chapeau, the world’s most glamorous hat convention, a sudden snowstorm traps a cast of eccentric guests inside the Chrome Cup Diner. When a sharp-tongued reporter turns up dead, suspicions swirl faster than gossip at a garden party. Now, a razor-witted inspector must untangle lies, alibis, and fashion crimes in this snappy, stylish whodunit.

The Badger: A bitter rivalry between two eateries comes to a head as they vie for the highly coveted Jimmy Mustache award for Coolest Restaurant Ever. The ragtag team of cooks at The Badger will have to think outside the box to beat their trendy nemesis, Flash in the Pan. Disguises, pranks, and pandemonium!

3 performances only: July 3rd at 7pm and July 5th at 2pm & 7pm.

An Enemy of the People

Directed by James Gelter
An Enemy of the People by Henrik Ibsen explores what happens when an individual's scientific discovery conflicts with a collective's economic interests. When Dr. Stockmann discovers a significant health risk to the people of their beloved town, they become determined to spur their fellow citizens to take immediate action. But the unexpected resistance Stockmann meets from the townsfolk, including close friends and family, throws both the town's future and the doctor's community standing into peril.
