The Danbury, Connecticut area is blessed with a plethora of theatrical performances. Among the many offerings this summer is at The Brookfield Theater for the Arts which is about to open the musical Once on this Island. The story is Based on the novel "My Love, My Love"
by Rosa Guy, a re-telling of the traditional The Little Mermaid, set to calypso-flavored music, set on a Caribbean island.

The story is brought to life by Director Michael Burnett and a cast of talented actors, singers and dancers, including my son; Daniel. More than 25 years ago I was active with that company. And still the Broofield playhouse remains alive with the energy and excitement which is live theater. If you haven't had the chance to get your tickets, do so now. You won't to miss the production, and the shows at Brookfield sell out early.

Opening night is July 9 and performances run through July weekends, with some Sunday Matinees. Call or click today for your reservations. The on-line box office is open right now.

Here is a preview of what to expect.

You won't be disappointed.
