PLAY ON!
A chaotic and comedic peek behind the curtain
Written by Rick Abbott
SPRING – Postponed until April 3 – April 18, 2020
The hilarious story of a theatre group trying desperately to put on a play in spite of maddening interference from a haughty author who keeps revising the script. We find this group of intrepid performers at the rehearsal of this dreadful show, then move on to the near disastrous dress rehearsal, and the finally the actual performance, in which anything that can go wrong, does. When the author decides to give a speech on the state of the modern theatre during the curtain calls, the audience is treated to a madcap climax of this thoroughly hilarious romp.
CAUTIONS: If this were a movie it would be rated PG. Play On! includes mild adult themes.. Pre-teens and teens who watch prime-time TV won’t see much to shock them, but depending on the personality and exposure of your children, they may be confused. Your own judgment is the best guide for your family.
