🎭 NJ Christian Singles Outing: "1776" at Plays-in-the-Park!

Join the NJ Christian Singles for a fantastic night of outdoor theater, fellowship, and history brought to life! We are heading to the beautiful open-air Stephen J. Capestro Theatre in Roosevelt Park to catch the closing night performance of the classic Broadway musical, 1776.

Step back into the summer of 1776 as John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and Thomas Jefferson attempt to convince the Second Continental Congress to vote for independence. It’s a brilliant, witty, and moving show, and doing it together under the stars is the perfect way to spend a summer Saturday night!

Time: Meet at 5PM (The box office opens at 5:30 PM, and tickets are sold day-of only—we want to get in line early to secure our spot together!)
