Grab your garbage bags, pick up the recycling, and get ready to laugh and cheer as this
repurposed circus turns trash into treasure! Originally produced in 2016 and following the
overwhelming success of its 2022 revival, “One Man’s Trash” is back again in 2023 for its third
national tour. With the limitless spirit and can-do attitude of the circus, this cast reclaims and
reanimates all that’s left in trash cans and littered in the garage to create a junkyard adventure
like none other. Featuring a variety of unique and daring circus acts, the show is a testament to
the power of community and teamwork. Be it the pass of a juggling club or the leap of an
acrobat, “One Man’s Trash” is ready to prove what we’re capable of–what we’re all capable
of–together. Truly, our band of inventive acrobats, high-flying aerialists, and quirky clowns are
just bursting to welcome you into their world! The dumpster doors are wide open– we can’t wait
for you to jump in.

Directed by Terra Vandergaw
Sharp Theater- April 12-14, 18-20
Content Warning:
The Wolves contains graphic language and mature content (mention of death and suicide). Not recommended for children under 12.
The Wolves is an exhilarating and sometimes frightening look into the world of a team of young female soccer players. These teenagers are the only inhabitants of the astroturf planet where they spend their Saturdays, and they are “not there as daughters or girlfriends or sex objects or manic pixie dream girls.” They are there on their own terms, fighting to win at nationals while managing to survive high school. Winner of the first Relentless Award for Playwriting and a finalist for the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, The Wolves is a sparkling take on raw adolescence, sex, society, soccer, and how to navigate coming of age in a complicated world.
General Admission $15, RCNJ Students: $5

2024-05-04 20:00 - 22:00 | Sharp Theater, Berrie Center for the Arts, 505 Ramapo Valley Road, Mahwah, NJ, 07430, United States
Tony DeSare performs with infectious joy, wry playfulness and robust musicality. Named a Rising Star Male Vocalist in Downbeat magazine, DeSare has lived up to this distinction by winning critical and popular acclaim for his concert performances throughout North America and abroad. From jazz clubs to Carnegie Hall to Las Vegas headlining with Don Rickles and major symphony orchestras, DeSare has brought his fresh take on old school class around the globe.
His sound is romantic, swinging and sensual, but what sets DeSare apart is his ability to write original material that sounds fresh and contemporary, yet pays homage to the Great American Songbook.

2024-09-28 20:00 - 21:30 | Sharp Theater, Berrie Center for the Arts, 505 Ramapo Valley Road, Mahwah, NJ, 07430, United States
Julie Benko joined the annals of theatrical legend and lore for her sensational understudy-to-star trajectory as Fanny Brice in the Broadway revival of Funny Girl. Between her tenure as the standby, alternate, and full-time Fanny, she played the role over 180 times! The New York Times raved that “Julie Benko is the bright-eyed, dulcet-voiced soprano who went from standby to star.”
Joined by her husband Jason Yeager on piano, Julie reflects on the journey leading to her meteoric rise, sharing songs and behind-the-scenes stories of her days understudying in Les Misérables, Fiddler on the Roof, Spring Awakening, and more. Standby, Me offers an evening of spectacular vocals, theatrical lore, and inspiration for all the greatest stars-to-be.
