Join us for a special evening of theater at Stissing Center!

On Friday, June 12 at 7:30 PM in The Grace Note, we’re proud to present a staged reading of Helpful Neighbors, a witty, thought-provoking new play by acclaimed playwright Robert Lyons.

A longtime leader in New York City’s downtown theater scene and former artistic director of the New Ohio Theatre, Lyons now calls Pine Plains home and serves on Stissing Center’s Advisory Board. We’re delighted to share his latest work with our community.

Helpful Neighbors follows Gloria, whose helpful neighbors seem eager to lend a hand—from managing finances to tending her tomato garden. But as events unfold, Gloria finds herself at the center of an unexpected battle between good and evil, where appearances can be deceiving.

Featuring local performers Grace Dietrich, Vaughn Fritts, Mary Jenkins, and Jamie Ge**er, this staged reading offers audiences the opportunity to experience a new play before it’s fully produced.

Reserve your seat and be part of an exciting tradition of bringing new works to life.
