Take a peak behind the curtain of Paper Mill Playhouse’s production of A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. Join artistic director Mark Hoebee and set designers as they present the design for the set. Their conversation will explore how color, theme and plot, paired with the director’s and designer’s concept, all influence the final product.

You don’t need to know anything about art to enjoy the Thursday Evening Salon Series. Sip a glass of wine or a soft drink and relax in an intimate living room setting while discussing current topics in the arts, humanities, and the social sciences. Your hosts will include artists, art historians, curators, philosophers, architects, writers, educators, stage designers, and more. Eclectic in content and social in nature, the Salon Series provides an opportunity for everyone—regardless of educational or professional background—to gather and learn more about the world of art and artists and how it impacts other disciplines.

Generously sponsored by a grant from the New Jersey Council for the Humanities, the 2011 Salon Series will be free and open to the public.
