Oxford Area Community Theatre
Feb. 16-25
Oxford Community Arts Center

Directed by Virgil Seger

Cast: Bett Kooris & Arny Stoller

This winner of the 1978 Pulitzer Prize for Drama uses a card game as a metaphor for life. Weller Martin is playing solitaire on the porch of a seedy nursing home. Enter Fonsia Dorsey, a prim, self-righteous lady. They discover they both dislike the home and enjoy gin rummy, so they begin to play and to reveal intimate details of their lives. Fonsia wins every time, and their secrets become weapons used against one another. Weller longs for a victory to counter a lifetime of defeats, but it doesn’t happen. He leaves the stage a broken man, and Fonsia realizes her self-righteous rigidity has led to an embittered, lonely, old age.

Beechmont Players Inc.

Anderson Center

Directed by Laura Berkemeier

Cast: Lori Valentine as Athena, Erin Russell as Claudia, Elizabeth L. Taylor as Murphy, Jay Gossett as Francis, Mason Parker as Otis, Brieanne Sheehan (B-Marie Baker) as Dora, Gary Glass as Mr. Dunlap, Samantha Toberman as Mrs. Osgood & Phil Clary as Mr. Pippet

It’s 1942 and two feuding Hollywood divas have descended upon the luxurious Palm Beach Royale Hotel. Everything seems to be in order for their performances at a wartime benefit…that is, until they are somehow booked into the same hotel  suite. Close encounters, mistaken identities, overblown egos, double entendres and a lap dog named Mr. Boodles round out this hilarious riot of a love note to the classic farces of the 30s and 40s.
