LOOKING GLASS LAND runs April 20-29

LOOKING GLASS LAND
Presented by Beavercreek Community Theatre Children’s Theatre
April 20-29
Beavercreek 

Looking Glass Land takes Lewis Carroll’s original story “Through the Looking Glass,” and adds to it a huge helping of unabashed silliness. This delightful romp through Alice’s looking glass retains all of the familiar characters, then introduces dozens of new ones: a baseball team, a gospel group called The Responsibilities, a train conductor, a peanut salesman, detectives, a Miss America, star struck tourist, plastic light saber knights and much more. This show is delightfully amusing and believable in a land that’s not, and is sure to please the entire family.

Directed by Teresa Connair

AN INSPECTOR CALLS runs April 20-28

AN INSPECTOR CALLS
Presented by Village Players
April 20-28
Fort Thomas

The action of the play occurs in an English industrial city, where a young girl commits suicide and an eminently respectable British family is subject to a routine inquiry in connection with the death. An inspector calls to interrogate the family, and during the course of his questioning, all members of the group are implicated lightly or deeply in the girl’s undoing. The family, closely knit and friendly at the beginning of the evening, is shown up as selfish, self-centered or cowardly, its good humor turning to acid, and good fellowship to dislike, before the evening is over.

Directed by jef brown

Cast: Burt McCollom as Inspector Goole, Wayne Kirsch as Arthur Birling, Betty Coulter as Sybil Birling, Ryan Fissel as Eric Birling, Merritt Beischel as Sheila Birling, Vernon Burns as Gerald Croft & Stephanie Mooney as Edna
