Once called “the jewel of New England” the Bijou Theatre in Crystal Vale sits along the banks of the Eerie River. It has long been abandoned and fallen into disrepair. Now, there is a new owner who is poised to reopen the Eerie River Bijou with a brand new show about Maui the Hawaiian Demigod. But as the newly formed Crystal Vale Community Players are putting the final touches on this debut show, strange things begin to happen. Actors are hearing horrific noises and seeing other worldly apparitions. They are declaring this theatre is haunted and fear for their lives. Will the Bijou reopen or will this finally be the end of the Eerie River Bijou? Join us for this family friendly dinner theater. We promise you’ll have a screaming good time!

While in Mr. Scary’s class Junie has trouble reading the blackboard – and she may need glasses. Add in a friendly cafeteria lady, an intense kickball tournament and a “Top-Secret Personal Beeswax Journal,” and first grade hasn’t been more exciting.

2023 Christi Awards
Saturday, June 3
LOCATION: TBA
RATED: G
The Christi Awards are a wonderful and fun evening to celebrate great performances by our actors young and old that gave exceptional performances this season. Everyone has the opportunity to dress up and celebrate with other castmates.
The Christi Award name is an abbreviated version of Christian to honor our name and God for giving us the abilities to do all that we do on stage. The award is an etched crystal award where a star is being carved out of the top of a mountain. This reflects what we do at CFT, chip away at the rough edges until we help create a star!
