Wonder of the World
August 29 @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm
Main Street Theatre Works presents Wonder of the World, a zany comedy by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright David Lindsay-Abaire, running Friday and Saturday evenings from August 7 through September 5, 2026, at the Kennedy Mine Amphitheatre in Jackson.
Directed by John Ewing, Wonder of the World follows Cass after she discovers a shocking secret about her husband and decides to leave her marriage behind. Her journey takes her to Niagara Falls, where she sets out to start over and check off everything on her bucket list. Along the way, she encounters a wildly unusual cast of characters, including a lonely tour-boat captain, a pair of bumbling private investigators, a moonlighting therapist, and others who help turn her escape into a comedy of epic proportions.
Guests are invited to arrive early, bring a picnic, and enjoy an evening of outdoor theatre under the stars.
Wonder of the World runs Fridays and Saturdays, August 7 through September 5, 2026, at the Kennedy Mine Amphitheatre, 1127 North Main Street in Jackson, CA. Gates open at 6:30 PM for picnics, and the show begins at 8 PM.
Tickets are $25 for general admission, $20 for seniors 65 and older, and $15 for youth 18 and under. For tickets and more information, visit https://www.mstw.org/.
