You Can't Take it with You
by Moss Hart & George Kaufman
September 18 - October 4
Directed by Kathy Drum
Audition dates July 26 & 27 at 7 pm
The
Pulitzer-winning play of 1936 is still as delightfully cornball as it
was in its Broadway debut, and certain to go on for decades if people
don't lose their abilities to recognize love and happiness in all it's
guises.
The 7 Keys
written by Jack Stanley
October 30 - November 15
Directed by Aprille Meek
Audition dates September 6 & 8 at 7 pm
A
best selling writer takes a bet that he can write a novel in a weekend
IF he is alone, but it turns out there's more than one "one and only"
key to the Baldplate Inn. Laughter and chaos resound in this wonderful
farce.
Rented Christmas
by Norman C. Ahern, Jr. and Yvonne Ahern
Music and Lyrics by Kathryn England and Bryan Linton
December 4 - 20
Directed by Teddi Lu Cochrane
Audition dates October 11 & 12 at 7 pm
John
Dale, a middle-aged bachelor and prominent businessman, wants to rent a
Christmas, not just with a tree and Christmas carols, but complete with
a wife, a family and all of the happiness for which he has been
secretly longing. A warm and delightful holiday treat for the entire
family.
The Hollow
by Agatha Christie
January 15 - February 7
Directed by Aprille Meek
Audition dates November 22 & 23 at 7 pm
An
unhappy game of romantic follow-the-leader explodes into murder one
weekend at The Hollow, home of Sir Henry and Lucy Angkatell. Dr.
Cristow is at the center of the trouble: Henrietta, his mistress;
Veronica, his ex mistress; and Gerda, his wife are all visiting at The
Hollow - within five minutes Cristow is dead. Nearly everyone has a
motive and most had the opportunity. A great "whodunit".
Biloxi Blues
by Neil Simon
March 5 - 20
Directed by Rick Peeples
Audition dates January 10 & 11 at 7 pm
Eugene
Morris Jerome (alter ego of the youthful Neil Simon) is a young army
recruit during the Second World War, going through his basic training,
learning more about Life, and developing his "Writer's Sensibility" at
boot camp in Biloxi, Mississippi in 1943. Eugene and his fellow
enlisted recruits suffer under a hard-nosed sergeant, partake of the
daily "mess" served up for meals. Eugene also confronts the ugly
specter of anti-Semitism; and, for the first time, falls in love.
An Ideal Husband
by Oscar Wilde
April 16 - May 2
Directed by Andy Taylor
Audition dates February 21 & 22 at 7 pm
Insider
trading. Blackmail. A marriage on the rocks. An Ideal Husband was
originally published in 1895, but the themes of Oscar Wilde's
deliciously clever and satiric play are as relevant today as when he
originally wrote about them.
Trip to Bountiful
by Horton Foote
May 28 -June 13
Directed by Bill Low
Audition April 4 and 5 at 7pm
Trapped
in a 3 room Houston apartment shared with her son and daughter-in-law,
Carrie Watts dreams of visiting Bountiful, the Gulf Coast town where
she grew up and raised her own family. She steals away with her latest
pension check, and although her trip is doomed by the gamily's call to
the police, the sheriff who tracks her down at the bus station carries
her on out to her old homestead.
