The Waterbury Arts Theatre Department is presenting the Neil Simon play ‘Rumors’ this weekend at Waterbury’s Palace Theater, the magnificent venue attached to the WAMS campus.

For the last five years, the department has incorporated into their season an annual production that highlights the best of their senior class before the students graduate from the magnet school. This year, the faculty also decided to showcase other aspects of the multi-talented class of 2016, including featured performances from the senior dancers, musicians and singers in addition to the visual artists.

All of the members of the senior class contributed to making this a very funny and professional looking production that I very much enjoyed. Despite the fact that I have seen all of these actors grow up on the WAMS stages, I quickly forgot that they are still in their teens as they performed this very grown up and sophisticated farce.

‘Rumors’ continues on Saturday Nov. 14 at 7:00pm and Sunday Nov. 15 at 2:00pm at the Palace. Tickets are $10 students and $12 adults for general admission. The show is rated PG-13 for mild language.
