It's The Summer of 1942, a time when sex was a mystery, love was a distant promise and responsibility meant getting home before you got in trouble with your folks?
A time when there was such a thing as youthful innocence and coming-of-age rites that meant something. It's this that "Summer of '42" seeks to evoke.
America is on the brink of war. Men line up by the thousands to join the army, but on a tiny island off the coast of Maine, three fifteen-year-old boys begin a summer they will never forget.
Hermie, Oscy and Benjie are accustomed to spending their summer together in New England, but somehow this year seems different. Girls have replaced baseball and comic books, and a beautiful young war bride has won Hermie's heart.
With a beautiful musical score, and a story line about love, life and human compassion, Summer of '42 will make you laugh and smile as you watch the young boys navigate their way toward manhood.

PDP's Community Focus Program Partner for their Summer of '42 production will be Community Toolbox. PDP will be sharing the spotlight to promote and fund raise for this worthy organization.
Community Toolbox mission is to bring volunteers and communities together to improve the homes and lives of homeowners in need.
Their focus is to provide small but critical repairs, accessibility modifications and energy efficient upgrades to low income and at-risk homeowners. Their repairs focus on three basic dignities: safety, health and accessibility.
They believe in "neighbors helping neighbors," communities rallying together to lend a hand and help one and other in times of need.
