The Red Stocking Revue presented by the Port Washington/Manhasset Chapter of CancerCare will take place from April 14 to 17 in the Schreiber High School auditorium located at 101 Campus Drive in Port Washington.

The theme of this year’s performance is “The Tonight Show”’ featuring performances by hosts through the decades and their guests. 

The show will be underwritten by The Peter & Jeri Dejana Family Foundation and directed by Susan Bishop. 

“I am very honored to have been asked to be the director of the Red Stocking Revue again this year,” Bishop said. “Our cast of about 80 volunteers range in age from 5 to 80 plus and are truly amazing people. They have been learning lyrics, singing, dancing, rehearsing, painting and building scenery, assembling and making costumes and raising money in order to put on an amazing show to raise money for CancerCare. This year’s show is quite entertaining and, as always, is family friendly. Please come and support us, you won’t be disappointed.”

This community production features local talent. Singers, dancers, extras, producers, stage crew, stage and journal ad organizers and many others are working to present an entertaining, and unique show that’ll raises tens of thousands of dollars each year for CancerCare.

All shows will take place April 14 to 16 are at 8:00 p.m. and on April 17 at 2:00 p.m. 

General admission tickets are $20 for all performances. Tickets for seniors and children are $15 for Thursday and Sunday shows. Reserved Patron seating is $30 per ticket.
