Here’s our hottest picks for WHAT’s Happening & WHERE this weekend

in North Delaware…

THE EXONERATED at Delaware Theatre Company

This critically acclaimed play induces a visceral reaction to stories of people unjustly sentenced to death. The interviewees were from vastly different, but had only one thing in common and that was that all 40 had been sentenced to death, spent anywhere from 2 to 22 years on death row and were subsequently found innocent and freed by the state.  For more information, visit THE EXONERATED at Delaware Theatre Company

Irene: One Night Only

This all-Delaware, vampire-themed collaboration features the Shaun Dougherty’s exciting music and story, Alex Buckner’s compelling choreography and a live pit band accompanying FSBT’s professional company on the main stage or Wilmington’s beautiful and historic Grand Opera House.  For more information, visit Irene: One Night Only
