'Shrek the Musical' and 'You Can't Take It With You' Headline 2026 Plays in the Park Season Basking Ridge, NJ — Bernards Township Parks & Recreation and Trilogy Repertory will bring two beloved stage productions to Pleasant Valley Park this summer as part of the annual Plays in the...

Trilogy's second summer show in our Plays in the Park series 2026, You Can't Take It With You:

A Classic American Comedy from the 1930’s
Grandpa Vanderhof and his wacky family, the Sycamores, have been happily living their zany
lives in his house by Columbia University in New York for many years. Things like stress, jobs, and paying taxes to the government are for other people, not for them! But when practical young Alice Sycamore becomes engaged to her company’s Vice President Tony Kirby, the Vanderhof/Sycamore clan must straighten up to meet the new in-laws. Disaster ensues and the evening ends with everyone in the house getting arrested and Alice ending the engagement. You Can’t Take It with You is a madcap, idealistic comedy that reinforces the idea that you can only live life to the fullest by doing whatever makes you happy.

Produced by Peter Curley
Directed by Linda Viel

Coming up this summer, our two Plays in the Park shows!

Our first show in July is Shrek the Musical.

"Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek...." And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists her rescue. Throw in a short-tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there's one on hand... and his name is Shrek.
