Rhoda Greenleaf lives to garden. It’s her obsession and her house looks like a jungle. She’d love to expand her plant collection to a greenhouse behind her home, and husband Vincent remarks that if she’s ever elected president she’ll have a greenhouse – only he didn’t say president of what! Thanks to Vincent’s comments, Rhoda’s newest passion is seeking the presidency of the local Garden Club, and she’ll do everything she can to achieve her dream. She plots to oust the long-time president by winning the local flower show. But fate comes up with obstacles to her quest that she must overcome with the help of her Garden Club friends. The cast includes Jeri Nakamura, Elaine Michael, Gretchen Gantner, Gaylene May Schumacker, Jessica Moore, Kaitlyn Sansom, Kaylee Michael, Meredith Conner, Lori Bowling, Teresa Myers, Megan Schultheis, Leslie Hillner, Judy Littlefield, Jenetta Anderson, Betsy Evans, Erica Brady, Doug Bruening and Hunter Bruening.
Tickets for GIRLS OF THE GARDEN CLUB are $17 and can be purchased online at www.villageplayers.biz or by calling 859-392-0500.
Village Players began in 1966 when members of the Fort Thomas Woman’s Club formed a community theatre department and renovated the lower level of the building to house a unique and intimate 102-seat three-quarter thrust stage. Village Players is a member of KTA, OCTA, ACT-Cincinnati and AACT. Located at 8 North Fort Thomas Avenue, Fort Thomas, Kentucky, Village Players mounts four productions each year and donates the proceeds of its spring production to charity.
