A Bad Year For Tomatoes

Hi again folks!  Due to the short time before the next show, we have changed course once again and decided to do a play we were considering for the fall.  Since it consisted of a small cast and we had such a short time frame to get the production ready, it seemed like the perfect thing to do!

"A Bad Year For Tomatoes" by John Patrick (Cheating Cheaters, A Barrel Full of Pennies) tells the story of a fed up actress that leaves the pressures and demands of her acting career, to write her autobiography in a tiny New England town.  She is successful in turning aside the offers pressed on her by her long-time agent, but dealing with her "Friendly" neighbors proves to be a different matter.

The Cast for Tomatoes is as follows:

Myra Marlowe - Sue Miles
Tom Lamont - Tim Miles
Cora Gump - Stacy Hubbel
Reba Harper - Sharla Jerrel
Piney - Bert Pezzarossi
Willa Mae Wilcox - Teresa Foley
Sheriff - David Kaiser

A Bad Year For Tomatoes is slated for August 5th-7th at the VA Auditorium.

I also wanted to take this time to thank all of those who auditioned for "The King and I".  We are currently in the process of selecting a show for the fall production, with the hope that we will be able to count on many of your talents.

Best Regards,

Dan Hance
Director
