"The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told"


OMG - I bet you forgot all about us! well, we're back, with news about the 7th Annual JTMF AIDS Fundraiser featuring Paul Rudnick's The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told.


As part of their 7th annual fundraising event, the James Tolin Memorial Fund will present Paul Rudnick’s comedy The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told at the Kelsey Theatre on the campus of Mercer County Community College, 1200 Old Trenton Road, West Windsor NJ on June 19, 20 and 21st. Friday and Saturday performances include our famous Silent Auction and Catered Reception. Proceeds from this event benefit the Open Arms Foundation and the James Tolin Memorial Scholarship at MCCC. Over the past six years, the JTMF has raised over $50, 000 by presenting events which featured productions of Paul Rudnick’s Jeffrey; Harvey Fierstein’s Torch Song Trilogy; Neil Simon’s The Odd Couple; Paul Rudnick’s Mr. Charles, Currently of Palm Beach; Nicky Silver’s The Altruists; Charles Busch’s Psycho Beach Party and Joe Orton’s What the Butler Saw.

In Rudnick’s alternate version of the Old Testament, Adam and Steve (and their lesbian counterparts, Jane and Mabel) create civilization, invent hors d’oeurves and experience all the joys and pains of love, loss and life in general. Spanning the dawn of time to modern day New York, Rudnick’s comic love story is more relevant today than ever.

Directed by Brian A. Bara, The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told features Damian Gaeta as Adam; Dave Hamm as Steve; Nicole Patrick as Jane; Maddie Patrick as Mabel; Kathy Garofano as Rabbi Sharon; Matthew Paul as Trey; Matty Daley as Kevin and Caitlin Blauvelt as Cheryl.
