We stand in solidarity with our Black employees, fellow theatre creators, performers, musicians, crew, audience members, and all those in the Black community. We stand against racism. We stand against discrimination in all forms. We see you, we hear you. We are listening. We know we’re not perfect. We know we have not always been vocal when we should have. For that, we are truly sorry.

Actions will always speak louder than words. We must now collectively take it upon ourselves as an organization and individual citizens to do the work—to donate, to research, to self-educate, to train staff, to protect employees/guests, to stand against hate, to stand against racism at all touchpoints. We know we have a long way to go to shape the future we wish to see in life, on stage, and behind the scenes. We must never again fall silent. We must work together to speak out, now and forever, until #BlackLivesMatter is more than just a movement, but the tangible reality of true justice for all.

SEASON BROCHURE: Please know that the season brochure you are receiving in the mail was printed, postage paid, sorted and at the post office to be dropped into the mail stream in early March before this all the changes were made due to Covid-19. Though were able to put a temporary hold on the mailing, we recently had to make the choice to mail them out partially correct or throw them out entirely.  The choice was made to not completely waste the money that had be spent and hopefully recoup a little of the expense by generating ticket sales for the 3 shows happening as scheduled in the fall and the 4 rescheduled shows for early 2021.

We apologize for any confusion it may have caused.

2020 SEASON SCHEDULE CHANGES

APRIL 16, 2020

Dear NSMT Friends,

We are sending our positive thoughts and prayers to you, our entire NSMT family. We hope that you and your families are healthy and staying home if possible. This crisis has touched the NSMT family personally and profoundly and we hope you will join us in expressing gratitude to all of the medical professionals, first responders, and essential workers who are getting us through this difficult time.

We have been working behind the scenes to develop a plan which will hopefully allow us to reopen quickly once the national and local health officials confirm it is safe and responsible to do so. We remain cautiously optimistic that once it is safe, and with some creative planning and a lot of hard work, we will be able to bring you the full musical season that we have been working on for the past year and were set to open when this crisis unexpectedly struck the world.

Erring on the side of caution and safety, we are now planning to start the 65th Anniversary Season with the scheduled productions of LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS (September 22 – October 4, 2020), KINKY BOOTS (October 27 – November 8, 2020), and the 30th Annual Production of A CHRISTMAS CAROL (December 4 – December 20, 2020). Following that, we are planning a winter schedule which will allow us to complete the 2020 season in early 2021.

The following previously announced 2020 productions have been rescheduled:

  • MAMMA MIA!, originally announced for May 5 – May 17, 2020, is rescheduled to May 4 – May 16, 2021.
  • THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE, originally announced for June 2 – June 14, 2020, is rescheduled to January 19 – January 31, 2021.
  • Rodgers + Hammerstein's CINDERELLA, originally announced for July 7 – July 19, 2020, is rescheduled to February 23 – March 7, 2021.
  • BUDDY – THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY, originally announced for August 11 – August 23, 2020, is rescheduled to March 30 – April 11, 2021.

Ticket buyers and Subscribers will be automatically sent new tickets for the corresponding rescheduled shows.

If you need to exchange your tickets or request an account credit, you can do so now by E-mailing or calling the Box Office. Due to an extremely limited Box Office Staff currently working remotely, the best way to contact the Box Office is by email at bosales@nsmt.org. The Box Office can be reached by phone at (978) 232-7200 – if you do not reach a staff member on the phone, please leave a voice mail message which will be returned in the order it is received. There is no in person access to the Box Office at this time.

Additionally, the following previously announced shows & education programs have been cancelled and refunds will be issued automatically, no action required.

  • THE FROG PRINCE children's show – July 10, 2020
  • SLEEPING BEAUTY children's show – July 17, 2020
  • BEAUTY AND THE BEAST children's show – August 14, 2020
  • Disney's THE LITTLE MERMAID, JR. children's show – August 21, 2020
  • Harvey Robbins' DOO-WOPP HALL OF FAME concert– August 20, 2020
  • JULY WEEKLONG education program July 13 – July 17
  • SUMMER INTENSIVE education program August 3 – August 21

The health and well-being of this entire community is our primary and shared focus. Like you, we are closely following the guidance of our health and government officials and anticipate updates to the status of both the stay-at-home and gathering restriction orders on a local and national level.

As these restrictions change, so may our plans. We ask for your patience and understanding while we work on creating the best, most responsible plans for upcoming scheduled events at North Shore Music Theatre. Please know that should plans have to change for safety, we will be in communication with you once again.

At this time, your support is needed more than ever. Please help us by continuing to purchase tickets and ticket packages for upcoming shows, holding onto your existing tickets, buying gift certificates for future purchases or taking a credit if needed. You can also help by spreading the word among your family and friends that NSMT will be back. And we will be with your support behind us!

In the meantime, please stay safe, stay home if possible, and follow our social media channels to stay connected and entertained as we look forward to welcoming you back to the theatre soon to celebrate our 65th Anniversary Season full of magical musicals in-the-round. We are all in this together, and we thank you for your support through this difficult time.

Thank you,
Bill Hanney and the entire team at NSMT
