PHOTOS from "Tuck Everlasting" at Music Mountain Theatre

(LAMBERTVILLE, NJ) -- Music Mountain Theatre presents Tuck Everlasting across three weekends (May 3-19, 2024). Based on the children's novel by Natalie Babbitt, Tuck Everlasting is a musical about love, family, and living life to the fullest. Photographer John Posada was on hand to take photos.

Tuck Everlasting asks the question, What would you do if you had all eternity?

Young Winnie Foster, portrayed on the MMT stage by Lillian Irene and Nora Bella Stern-Kushnier, yearns for a life of adventure beyond her white picket fence, but when she becomes unexpectedly entwined with the Tuck family– patriarch Angus (Erik Snyder), matriarch Mae (Rachel Fingles), and sons Miles (Soren Madsen) and Jesse (Sky Carter), she gets more than she could have ever imagined...because the Tucks have a secret.

More than eight decades ago, the family drank from a spring. Ever since, they have not aged a day. In fact, they are unable to die at all. Now, Winnie must help protect the family’s secret from those who would do anything for a chance at eternal life, including The Man in the Yellow Suit (David Whiteman), who has been doggedly pursuing the Tucks and their secret at all costs. She also has an extraordinary choice of her own to make: return to her life or drink from the spring and continue with the Tucks on their infinite journey.

Performances take place Fridays at 8:00pm; Saturdays at 3:00pm & 8:00pm; and Sundays at 3:00pm.  Tickets are available for purchase online.  Check out MMT Group pricing for groups of 15 or more.
