Time to Admit Yourself to "Admit One" at NJ Repertory Theatre

What lengths will a doting parent take to get their beloved child into the prestigious Giddings University?

Howard Everett is willing to do just about anything, and since he's one of the wealthiest donors of the elite school, he thinks it should be a piece of cake. However, what he doesn't realize is that he's about to face-off with an admissions officer who not only plays by her own rules, but is prepared to make his life a living hell.

The world premiere of the new comedy, "Admit One" by Wendy Yondorf, opened at New Jersey Repertory Company at 179 Broadway in Long Branch on January 18 and will run through February 16.

Starring Ames Adamson and Catherine LeFrere, the struggle between right and wrong and doing what's best for your child is whimsically explored under the direction of Karen Carpenter, who is best known for “Love, Loss, and What I Wore” by Delia & Nora Ephron (Broadway World, Drama Desk Awards).

Wendy Yondorf is a founding member of the Writers’ Bloc, a three-time semi-finalist for the O’Neill, recipient of a Berrilla Kerr Foundation Writing Fellowship, and a featured playwright at Niagara University as well as her Alma mater, Brown University.

Performances are Thursdays, Fridays at 8:00 pm; Saturdays at 3:00 pm and 8:00 pm; and Sundays at 2:00 pm. Contact the NJ Rep Box Office at 732-229-3166 to reserve seats or visit www.njrep.org to purchase tickets online.
