10/9 – 10/31: The Rocky Horror Show. We know the antici…pation has been killing you. Surrender to the cult classic that refuses to behave for the Halloween season and revel in a deliciously decadent rock ‘n’ roll party where nothing is sacred, everything is extra, and liberation is the main event. Late night audience participation performances every Saturday night!
11/13 – 11/15: Spotlight on Young Performers Presents…13: The Musical. The Clear Space Arts Institute Spotlight on Young Performers program is the perfect group to bring to life Tony Award winner Jason Robert Brown’s heartwarming and hilarious coming of age musical comedy to the stage. Evan Goldman is plucked from his home in New York City and dropped into small-town Indiana right before his Bar Mitzvah. Making new friends while navigating crushes, cliques, and rumors, Evan is like all of us once upon a time: growing up faster than we hoped while still trying to cling to the fun of just being a kid.
11/27 – 12/20: A Christmas Story. Unwrap a holiday classic, just like it was the first time. Adapted from the original movie by the composers of La La Land, The Greatest Showman, and, yes, Dear Evan Hansen, this stage musical delighted Clear Space audiences years ago – and is back for a second helping. Ralphie’s got one Christmas wish: a Red Ryder BB gun with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time. But, with a dreaded double-dog dare, a bunny suit, a Cracker Jack prize, and a very grumpy Santa, will he make it til December 25?

Celebrate Labor Day with one of the most unique end-of-summer traditions on the East Coast: the Bethany Beach Jazz Funeral. This free, family-friendly event happens every Labor Day Monday at 5:30 p.m. on the north end of the Bethany Beach Boardwalk. Locals and visitors gather to say a playful goodbye to summer in true New Orleans style as three lively Dixieland bands—the Dixie Cats, Downtown Dixieland Band, and Jazz Funeral Irregulars—lead a spirited procession carrying a casket symbolizing “Summer” to its final resting place at the Boardwalk Bandstand. Guests are encouraged to dress up in costumes or traditional mourning attire, complete with black veils, flowers, and twirling umbrellas. The celebration continues the Friday before Labor Day with the Bethany Beach Jazz Funeral Silent Auction at Bethany Blues Restaurant starting at 3 p.m., with proceeds benefiting local charities. Whether you’re a longtime fan or a first-time visitor, this quirky tradition captures the spirit and charm of Bethany Beach.
