The Rittenhausen Theater is in the heart of Nyack housed in the old Nyack high school situated across from Nyack Hospital on Midland Avenue. While one would think that the theater might just be a typical high school auditorium, a pleasant surprise awaits, as upon entry the first thing to greet the eyes is the beautiful two-story draped windows framed by architecture typically home to many ‘real’ stately theaters. Several large chandeliers generously light the red upholstered comfortable seating rows, which are tri-sectioned into the front and rear orchestra, and the balcony. The front and rear seating are most accommodating to any that stairs are a problem to, along with a roomy section up front for wheelchair accessibility. The theater while large enough, holding about five hundred seats, is intimate enough that clear stage view is excellent from any seat.
Hudson Vagabond Puppets is a 501(c)3, non-profit theatrical organization, while in existence for thirty-four years; we are starting a new chapter in our company life. We are reintroducing ourselves to our own Rockland County community, celebrating with a few small surprises at this show one being a few door prizes.
Come join us, it will be a fun, colorful, unique, live children’s theater performance that guaranteed, children will remember! (And on the down low, it’s educational to boot!)
