MY FAVORITE YEAR
Presented by Vandalia Youth Theatre Company
July 15-24
Dayton

It’s 1954, and Benjy Stone, freshman writer on TV’s King Kaiser Comedy Cavalcade, is assigned the daunting task of baby-sitting veteran Hollywood swashbuckler Alan Swann while he’s doing a live  guest appearance on the show. The effort to keep the reckless Swann off the booze and out of the papers during the rehearsal week nearly drives Benjy to the brink. But when he’s given an unexpected glimpse into Swann’s broken heart, Benjy begins to discover a thing or two about life and love.

Four couples. Three bedrooms. One night—and the morning after. In BEDROOM FARCE, the lives of four couples intersect to create a sophisticated 1970s comedy, set entirely in three different bedrooms. When exes Trevor and Jan find themselves in another couple’s bedroom at a party, they immediately realize how miserable their marriages are. Will they jeopardize their relationships and get back together? Or will they just have to sleep in the beds they’ve made? Find out what they decide as CSC explores relationships at various stages—and the unique troubles encountered along the way.
