A thrift-store painting. A possible masterpiece. A battle over who gets to decide what’s real.
Bridge Street Theatre opens its 2026 MainStage Season with "Bakersfield Mist" by Stephen Sachs, directed by Mark Perry.
When Maude, an unemployed bartender, believes she’s discovered a long-lost Jackson Pollock, a New York art expert arrives to prove her wrong. What follows is a sharp, funny, and increasingly personal battle over art, authority, and who gets to decide what something is worth.
As the stakes rise, the question shifts from the painting itself to something deeper: who gets believed — and why.
April 16–26, 2026. Thursdays–Saturdays at 7:00pm, Sundays at 2:00pm.Bridge Street Theatre, Catskill. Tickets at BridgeSt.org.
Bridge Street Theatre is a professional theatre in Catskill, NY, creating bold, intimate live performance in the Hudson Valley.
