Theater productions returned to Centenary University, in Hackettstown, in the form of several outdoor productions for young audiences, the first public events held on campus since COVID-19 halted in-person events in March. Presented by the Centenary Stage Company, the three plays held in July represent the first steps of a strategy to reopen the campus.
The three free outdoor productions — “Polkadots: The Cool Kids Musical” on July 8, “Miss Nelson is Missing!” on July 22 and “Schoolhouse Rock” on July 29 — used social distancing, reserved seating and creative staging to safely bring cultural offerings to northwestern New Jersey communities during the pandemic.
