Fresh off auditions for the first show of the 2026 season, Town Players of Newtown has finalized the fourth production for its Main Station season: Arthur Miller’s All My Sons.

The local theater company had already announced the first three shows of the upcoming season. An internationally acclaimed comedy, a drama, and a theater classic will fill the Orchard Hill Road theater for the season’s first three of four productions.

God of Carnage by Yasmina Reza, translated by Christopher Hampton, will open this year’s series with performances the weekends of March 13-28.

Terry Sagedy returns to direct the comedy that takes audiences to the most dangerous place on Earth: parenthood.

What happens when two sets of parents meet up to deal with the unruly behavior of their children? A calm and rational debate between grown-ups about the need to teach kids how to behave properly? Or a hysterical night of name-calling, tantrums, and tears before bedtime? Boys will be boys, but the adults are usually worse — much worse.

The Tony and Olivier Award-winning God of Carnage is a comedy of manners, without the manners. Auditions for the season opener were conducted last weekend.

Mark Ferguson will direct the second show of the season, The Shadow Box by Michael Cristofer. Performances are planned for weekends, May 1-16.

In this compelling drama, three terminal cancer patients, living out their final days in hospice cottages on hospital grounds, wrestle with the toll their disease takes on themselves and their loved ones.

Then in October, Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest will be staged. Brian DeToma will direct the production planned for the weekends of October 2-17.

The Importance of Being Earnest is a satirical comedy that critiques Victorian society through themes of identity, social obligation, and marriage, focusing on characters Jack Worthing and Algernon Moncrieff, who create false personas to escape societal expectations.

The plot unfolds with mistaken identities and romantic entanglements, ultimately revealing Jack’s true identity as Algernon’s brother, leading to a humorous resolution.

Wilde’s work highlights the absurdity of social norms and the superficiality of love, suggesting that appearances often take precedence over truth. First staged in February 1895, the farcical comedy continues to resonate 130 years later.

Directed by Gus Bottazzi, All My Sons is scheduled for weekends, December 4-19.

In Miller’s classic drama, respected, self-made businessman Joe Keller prides himself on providing for his wife and their two sons. During the war, Joe and his business partner, Steve Deever, made airplane parts, but Deever went to prison for selling cracked cylinder heads to the Air Force, causing the deaths of 21 pilots.

Years later, Joe’s true culpability begins to surface, and he suddenly faces the consequences of his actions. His son Larry went missing during the war, and his other son, Chris, is engaged to Ann Deever, Steve’s daughter.

When Ann’s brother George returns from the service, accusations and revelations threaten the safety and happiness of the Keller family, raising questions of ethics, patriotism, and personal responsibility.

All My Sons is a powerful and deeply human drama that confronts the cost of moral compromise and the weight of personal responsibility. The story exposes how private decisions can have devastating public consequences — and how denial can fracture even the closest family bonds.

It challenges audiences to examine accountability, integrity, and the ripple effects of choosing self-interest over the greater good.

The production will invite attendees to experience a gripping, thought-provoking evening of theater that asks a timeless question: what do we owe to one another?
