ABOUT THE SHOW

In this musical-comedy premiere, love triangle hijinks meet women's empowerment all set to music in turn-of-the-century rural Vermont. Based on an historical anecdote, the setting is the Rochester House hotel, where four “kept-women” reside. Their men, married businessmen from White River Junction, visit them once a week via the new Peavine Railroad. The hotel is throwing a ball to celebrate the arrival of the electric lights, and the mistresses have invited the wives.... Will the men see the light? Will the women find their power? Come join us for Rochester Light & Power, the new original musical from the same creative team who brought us Second Chance, Ransom, and The Singing Master.


All tickets are reserved seating; tickets are available now.
