Christmas plays until December 29 at the Kirby Theatre on the campus of Drew University. The Shakespeare Festival ends its season with a beautifully rendered production of Dickens "A CHRISTMAS CAROL". Delight in all the past memories of Christmas past, the sadness of Christmas present and the fear of Christmas to be. Relish the transformation of Ebeneezer Scrooge as he morphs from a mean, stingy old man into a man many years younger in spirit and full of hope and giving to those in need. Whether on film or on stage, Scrooge's transformation is always a joy to behold. As always, with this brilliant group of actors, directors and designers, the evening or matinee leaves the audience with the pleasure of having been a part of a great theatrical experience.. Still time to catch this wonderful Christmas tradition. No humbug this!

We love to bring the grandkids. The acting is great and they never disappoint. You can tell everyone puts their heart into each play including the stagehands. It's a nice little small theater with popcorn. after each show we are allowed to shake hands with all the actors.

Part of the Morristown National Historical Park, this recreated campsite was home to the Pennsylvnia troops in the winter of 1779-80.
Reviewed By Jimbo4uClinton_NJ - Easton, United States
There is an abundance of history here, as well as some very well maintained hiking trails. Transport yourself to the revolutionary war period and get a feel for what it may have been like for Washington and the patriots that freed us from England. Look at the encampments to see hoe the troops lived Back then! No internet or GPS.
5. Mayo Performing Arts Center

Mayo Performing Arts Center is Northern New Jersey's premier performing arts organization. Presenting concerts, dance, jazz, theatre, family shows and more in the heart of downtown Morristown.
Reviewed By Traveler0922 - Berkeley Heights, United States
We go to Mayo 2 or 3 times a year and have always enjoyed the shows. They have a large selection of shows to choose from during the year so there is something that should please everyone. The theater is comfortable with good sound system especially for an older building. Parking is convenient especially if have dinner before a show, you can park next door. There are public lots not far from the theater as well as other lots from which there are shuttles. The last show we saw was Celtic Angels. It was entertaining with 5 women singers with beautiful voices. There was a wonderful fiddle player as well as 5 extradordinary male dancers. Celtic angels similar to Celtic Woman with maybe singing more recent Irish songs intetmixed with some traditional ballads. There was one odd issue is that for a few seconds bright lights from the stage would shine directly into the audience making it difficult to see. Mayo is higher recommended.

We had amazing time on our first time at this Sunflower field. It was so beautiful they have a side where you can take pictures and enjoy the beautiful sunflower walk & another side where you can pick your own $2 each steam. Also they have pick your own veggies $6.99 the bag and you pick eggplants, tomatoes & peppers. We were so happy because this farm allowed our Coco Chanel 2 years old Chihuahua to be with us. I highly recommended!

Reviewed By Helen711 - Atlanta, United States
We took a guided tour and enjoyed everything! We didn't spend much time in the main building, so went back to look at some of the displays. There's too much to read for just a one or two hour visit. You must have a guide to go into the historic house, and the stairways are steep and narrow. Definitely not ADA approved! Lots of original beds, paperwork, kitchen appliances and more. Well worth the time.

There are lots of glacial oddities that are fun to look at, as well as a scenic route by the river and a view of the Manhattan skyline. It does get quite rocky and the ascent can be difficult at times, but it's very shady and is a beautiful place to be. To see most of what the trail has to offer, it may take about 4 hours. Dog and kid friendly.

I knew nothing about grist mills and suddenly I learnt so much US history. The people here were the best guides ever. they explained things so simply and it was great. I could have stayed hours.
