Servant Stage presents: Oklahoma! JR.! Set in a Western Indian territory just after the turn of the century, the high-spirited rivalry between the local farmers and cowboys provides the colorful background against which Curly, a handsome cowboy, and Laurey, a winsome farm girl, play out their love story. Although the road to true love never runs smooth, with these two headstrong romantics holding the reins, love's journey is as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road.

Nights of relaxation, fun, romance, and revelry await you during the 2019 series of Music in the Vineyards. 2019 ushers in the 37th season of Music in the Vineyards.

Our venue is without compare in south-central Pennsylvania. The stone arch winery and 18th-century mill and miller’s house are complemented by manicured grounds and a babbling stream, surrounded by lush woodlands. Stretch your legs at intermission by walking around and enjoying the beautiful property.

Every Saturday starting June 29th thru August 31st.

2019 Summer Camp
to present Disney’s Frozen JR!
July 8 – August 2, 2019
EPAC’s Center Stage Summer Theater Camp, now in its fifteenth year, will fix its primary focus on the overall performance experience as we proudly present Disney’s Frozen JR. This summer campers entering grades 1-12 in the fall will take a weekly, step-by-step journey on the magic of “putting all together.” Our campers will be introduced to various components that are needed to set the stage prior to opening night along with masterclass sessions. Center Stage Summer Theater Camp will now offer the opportunity for our high schoolers entering grades 9-12 to take on an active presence as production ambassadors working alongside camp instructors in a more pivotal role throughout the rehearsal process – from its beginning concepts, to auditions, set and costumes, to its final presentation. Disney’s Frozen JR. is based on the 2018 Broadway musical and brings Elsa, Anna, and the magical land of Arendelle to life onstag

July 12 – August 9, 2019

For Kylie Carson, middle school is a very scary and unfriendly place. So she cooks up a sweet solution: form a cupcake club that’s open to anyone seeking friendship. But the popular clique turns bitter with jealousy and vows to destroy the club’s efforts. Kylie is now faced with a tough choice: stoop to the mean girls’ level or take the higher road. The delicious pop-infused score by Rick Hip-Flores brings the bestselling children’s book by Sheryl and Carrie Berk to life, and drives home a message of empathy, love, and the power of young people to change the world.

Pippin
JULY 18 – AUGUST 3
Bob Fosse’s version of Pippin is not just a Medieval fairytale. If you’re looking for an epic knight and a happy-ever-after, then this is not the musical for you. However, if you’re interested in a darker quest filled with existential quandaries and a brooding prince trying to find himself, then you’re in for a one-of-a-kind show. Despite being an anachronistic musical set in Charlemagne’s France with a 70’s pop music score, Pippin is known for being one of the most realistic shows because of its connection to the audience and real life issues.
