Customers line up with umbrellas at a concession stand Wednesday at Cumston Hall before a showing of “Much Ado About Nothing” by the Theater at Monmouth. People planning to attend a performance Thursday may want to pack an umbrella for a matinee of “James and the Giant Peach” but, with sun expected in the late afternoon, leave it home for the evening showing of “Blithe Spirit.” Staff photo by Andy Molloy
