Tickets are now on sale for Theatre Palisades’ first production of 2025: “Jest a Second!” which is set to open on Friday, January 10, at 8 p.m.
The play, written by James Sherman, is produced by Martha Hunter and directed by Jonathan Fahn. It is the sequel to “Beau Jest,” which ran from in January and February 2024 at Pierson Playhouse.
“In this follow-up to ‘Beau Jest,’ Sarah and Bob are now married and expecting their first child,” read a synopsis. “However, Sarah’s brother, Joel, is now the one having trouble admitting something to their parents—and Bob once again steps in to ‘help.’ Hilarity once again ensues as the family deals with its latest drama.”
The role of Sarah Goldman will be filled by Jasmine Haver and Claire Goldhush, with her mother, Miriam, played by Laura Goldstein and her father, Abe, played by Lou Saliba. Joel will be played by Jon Paul Burkhart, Bob by Arden Maden and Dr. Rosen by Levente Tarr.
Performances will take place on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., as well as Sundays at 2 p.m., through February 16. Tickets are $22 for adult, and $20 for seniors and students.
All performances take place at Pierson Playhouse, which is located at 941 Temescal Canyon Road. Tickets are available at the Theatre Palisades website or by calling 310-454-1970.
