Thank you to everyone who made our Sunday-evening “With Friends Like These…” show happen! Thank you to our playwrights for their talent and creativity – Dan, Jye, Mark, Craig, Jim, Robert and Marjorie. Thank you to our actors – Koby, Colette, Linda, Randy, Natalie, Andrew, Mark, Abby and Carol – for bringing all the plays’ friends to life. Thank you to our directors – Lorraine, Suzanna and Brenda – for guiding the actors through the plays’ good times and bad times. Thank you to Beth, Jeremy, John, Doug, Bernie and the ushers for making the evening so enjoyable for the audience. Thank you to Vintage Theatre for letting our friends play on the stage. And thank you to the four actors and directors who each contributed a “Message to a Friend” that we read between the plays.  

​

Our next show is “The 10-1/2 Commandments”: an evening of plays and stories about virtue, sin, Biblical wrath and modern morality. We are reading scripts and will announce the plays soon. Which Commandments will we feature? Will we covet thy neighbor’s wife or thy neighbor’s goods? Will we bear false witness, or witness false bears? Join us on Sunday night, August 9 at Vintage Theatre to find out!
