2010 SEASON OF PLAYS

Seniors of the Sahara is now in full rehearsal and we are looking for people to help with costumes, make-up, props, lighting and sound, programs, advertising sales, and dinner theatre. We are going to try for a dinner theatre with the help of another organization who has a certified kitchen. Seniors of the Sahara, a comedy directed by Carol Anton, will go on stage September 24, 25, 26, October 1, 2, and 3. Cast in the play are Susie Wootton-Wisdom, Cary Vanderberg, Becky Burcher, Charles Kuhne, Cathy Lacey, Ginger Henry, Shiela Walker, and Rick O’Neill (who is playing a dual role) and an announcer yet to be decided.

Next on the calendar for productions will be Love Letters featuring our own president, Cathy Lacey and our man Friday (who does so many different jobs for the theatre) Ron Fenn. Love Letters will be on stage Saturday, November 6 for an evening performance and Sunday, November 7 for a matinee.

2011 SEASON OF PLAYS

Becky Burcher has been given the go-ahead for a February, 2011 production of “Steel Magnolias.” She will begin the audition process in November. This production has 6 women, 2 of them younger rather than older.

Helen Patterson will be directing “A Southern Fried Murder,” a made-for dinner theatre production with a cast of 5 women and 4 men and 1 volunteer from the audience, at a date yet to be decided.

Charles Kuhne will be directing “Revenge of the Red Feather Ladies” which has a cast of 6 women. He will be looking to audition when the production dates are set for this one-act play.

Carol Anton is currently scouting for another male to complete her cast in a future production of “The Boys in Autumn,” a two-man play about Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn in later years. This drama takes place outside Hannibal, Missouri in the 1920s. If you would like to read for this script, please call her at 744-5411. She is hoping to show it in T-or-C as well as Las Cruces. Hawaii theatre produced the play in March with Joe Moore and Pat Sajak (yes the one on Wheel of Fortune) and the production was seen on the west coast many years ago staring Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster.
