You can take the Long Island Rail Road from Penn Station to Wantagh or Freeport train stations. At one point ran bus service back and forth between Freeport and Jones Beach. I believe this may have stopped but I'm not sure.
In any event, my advice to you is simply take the LIRR from Penn station to Wantagh. There is a cab stand outside of the train station. Grab a cab to the theater. It should be fairly cheap. Its a very short drive. Getting home is a little more difficult, but there should be plenty of cabs. I would actually suggest taking an uber though. Take it back to Wantagh and take the train back into Penn station.
The train from Penn to Wantagh should be direct (meaning you don't have to transfer anywhere). There are about 6 or 7 stops before you get to Wantagh. The ride itself should probably be around 45 minutes.
