HAMMONTON EVENTS

THE EAGLE THEATRE

Dogfight, the upcoming show at the Eagle Theatre in Hammon-ton, is based on a 1991 Warner Bros. movie. Numerous talented young women and men com-prise the cast.

Complete with a pop music score, Dogfight describes three young Marines on November 21, 1963. The world changed the following day when President John F. Kennedy was assassi-nated.

Because there is a small, but growing conflict in Vietnam in Southeast Asia. They are ship-ping out the next day. As young men often do, they want to have a final night of partying.

Eddie, one of the three, meets Rose, a shy waitress, and treats her badly. She somehow then reverses his behavior, showing him how love and compassion tops meanness.

Shows are November 15 - De-cember 8, excluding Thanks-giving Day. Performance times are 7:30 p.m., Wednesday/Thursday; 8 p.m., Friday/Satur-day; 3 p.m., Saturday/Sunday. Tickets are $29-$39, depend-ing the day/time. General ad-mission on a first come, first served seating.
