On Golden Pond
This is the love story of Ethel and Norman Thayer, who are returning to their summer home on Golden Pond for the forty-eighth year. He is a retired professor, nearing eighty, with heart palpitations and a failing memory but still as tart-tongued, observant and eager for life as ever. Ethel, ten years younger, and the perfect foil for Norman, delights in all the small things that have enriched and continue to enrich their long life together. They are visited by their divorced, middle-aged daughter and her dentist fiancé, who then go off to Europe, leaving his teenage son behind for the summer. The boy quickly becomes the grandchild the elderly couple have longed for, and as Norman revels in taking his ward fishing and thrusting good books at him, he also learns some lessons about modern teenage awareness and slang in return. In the end, as the summer wanes, so does their brief idyll, and in the final, deeply moving moments of the play, Norman and Ethel are brought even closer together by the incidence of a mild heart attack. Time, they know, is now against them, but the years have been good and, perhaps, another summer on Golden Pond still awaits.

CORONAVIRUS UPDATE
Dear ACCT Patron,
As you can imagine, the coronavirus outbreak is a major concern for all area theaters that rely on bringing together audiences, cast, and volunteers. Crowds are a delight to the cast and to each other, but never at the risk of providing a safe, welcoming environment for all along with a worthwhile theater experience.
We are monitoring and following the guidance of the Church, the County and the Center for Disease Control, as well as that of other local theaters. There are things that everyone must do to combat the spread of air-born contagions. The two easiest and most effective ways are to wash or sanitize your hands regularly and sneeze or cough into your sleeve or a tissue. If you are feeling unwell, we strongly encourage you to not come to ACCT until you are back in good health.
Any missed performance is easily rescheduled, no questions asked. Simply come to the next performance for which you are available. We are never so crowded that extra patrons cannot be accommodated.
