‘Leading Ladies’ Rehearsing
Director Julia Body announced she has cast our next Mainstage Production Leading Ladies, an hilarious modern farce by Ken Ludwig (Moon Over Buffalo, Lend Me A Tenor). The show will run Feb 24 thru March 3 and is set in 1958 Pennsylvania. Two English actors find themselves so down on their luck that they are reduced to performing “Scenes from Shakespeare” on the Moose Lodge circuit in the Amish country of Pennsylvania. Leo hears that an old lady in York, PA is about to die and leave her fortune to her two long lost English nephews. He and his buddy, Jack, decide to pass themselves off as her beloved relatives and get the cash. The trouble is that the nephews are really nieces and when Leo and Jack discover this, the pandemonium begins. Romantic entanglements, mistaken identities, and downright hilarity ensues. This is a play that will appeal to everyone.
Second Stage Performance
‘The Herbal Bed’, a staged, public play reading, written by Peter Whelan, directed by Kim MacMillan. Two performances March 9th and 10th at 7:30 pm.
Staged readings are public performances in which the actors, after a few rehearsals, read the play from the stage without set or props and with minimal movement. It is an opportunity to appreciate the story, language and characterization of a fine script. There is a minimal admission fee of $5 for the public.
