Curmudgeon Boogie (Into the Shadows)


Hip Pocket Theatre

After hibernating during a year like none other, we invite you to come out and celebrate Hip Pocket's 45th season with us! Our season opens with Curmudgeon Boogie (Into the Shadows), written and directed by Hip Pocket founder Johnny Simons. 

Old sourpuss Jimmy Curmudgeon lives alone on a lonely lakefront with his two dogs, never leaving his humble abode except for occasional journeys to the grocery store, or the neighborhood washeteria, or to visit his wife, Queen Dee Dee, at the nursing home where she has been bed-bound for 5 years.

Jimmy is a collector of shadows kept in an old antique chest he visits from time to time in an attempt to relive adventures enjoyed in his distant past.

Can music help Jimmy face reality or will he forever drown his spirit in past memories?

June 11 - July 3 (Fri-Sun @ 9 PM Curtain)
Note: This play closes on Saturday, July 3rd.
