If you love Shakespeare, you'll love Madison—it's the home of the Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey, one of the nation's best Shakespeare repertory theaters. The Playwright's Theater of New Jersey is in Madison, too, and in nearby
Millburn, the Paper Mill Playhouse has staged plays and musicals in an 18th-century paper mill since 1938.
Madison also boasts three universities: Drew, Fairleigh Dickinson and the College of Elizabeth Seton. The Museum of Early Trades and Crafts takes visitors back to pre-industrial New Jersey with its collections of tools and products of an age gone by. 18 mi/29 km from Newark.
