Maurer Productions OnStage presents the comedy Popcorn Falls, weekends February 18-27 at Kelsey Theatre on the West Windsor campus of Mercer County Community College (MCCC), 1200 Old Trenton Road.
Written by playwright and actor James Hindman, Popcorn Falls is the story of a small town with a dried-up tourist attraction. Unless the mayor can scrape up some money, the town will be forced into bankruptcy and turned into a sewage treatment plant. One small loophole can unearth a town-saving grant, but the money is tied into producing a play in a town with no actors and no theater.
Popcorn Falls premiered at Theatre Nova in Ann Arbor, Mich., in 2017, and opened off-Broadway at the Davenport Theatre in New York City in 2018. Dan Keyser and Maria Keyser play the entire population of Popcorn Falls in this comic race to save the town.
Shows are Friday and Saturday, February 18, 19, 25, and 26 at 8 p.m.; and Sunday, February 20 and 27 at 2 p.m. Tickets are$18-$20. Visit KelseyTheatre.org or call (609) 570-3333.
