"Seniors of the Sahara" follows Sylvia Goldberg, a respectable retired New Jersey school teacher, who brings home more than just souvenirs upon returning from her grandson's wedding in Israel. Sylvie's troubles begin when she realizes that the old teapot she purchased at an outdoor market is actually a priceless relic containing a geriatric genie "Eugene" with a bad back and a penchant for vodka and V8. Keeping Eugene a secret from her three best friends, Mabel, Thelma and Fannie, proves to be nearly as difficult as protecting herself from Eugene's former master who follows Sylvie home and threatens her at knifepoint. Be careful what you wish for Sylvie Goldberg! You never know, it might come true. Seniors of the Sahara is a magical romantic comedy for seniors and "juniors" of all ages.

The director is Stina Seeger-Gibson. Stina is Artistic Director and a veteran actor and director at the theatre. You recently saw her as “Mother Superior” in “Nunsense” by Dan Goggin.

Behind the scenes we have Assistant Director, Cindy Martin; Stage Manager, Shelby Barton; Properties Mistress, Liz LaRocque; Lights and Sound, Michael Daley and Stage Crew, Bunny Stevens, Jeri Laski and Curtis Wagner.
