At The Collective we are often a family first and a theater company second. We recently lost one of our family members, one of our best and most enthusiastic supporters. We would like to honor the life of Bob Gregory by dedicating this production of Making God Laugh to him.

Bob was an avid supporter of The Collective from the very beginning, attending countless performances, supplying innumerable concessions, and lending various props and costumes. He and Judy were instrumental in helping us to secure a new home at St. Andrew’s. He was a father to us all, caring for his daughter’s friends as if they were his own. He will be greatly missed and we will always remember him with great love. We know that he is assuredly up there at this very moment “Making God laugh.” Thank you Gregory family for being our surrogate family whenever we needed one.

See Making God Laugh, this Friday and Saturday and next Friday and Saturday (June 5, 6, 12 and 13) at 7:30 at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in New Bedford!

Midnight Tide is the second short play you’ll see. Two pirates sail into town on the Midnight Tide with “treasures” in hand. Can they finesse their way into the hearts and wallets of the social elite? Or will their grand plans fall by the wayside?
