Thomas More College

Victor Frankenstein is a man with an obsession. He ruthlessly pursues the secrets of creating life and in doing so creates a monster. Consumed with hatred for his creation, he triggers events that ultimately lead to the destruction of himself and all he holds dear. Witness the tragic tale of a man playing God, only to be damned by God. This riveting production by the Villa Players will closely follow Mary Shelley’s classic. Following performances, stay for talk backs with the cast and Director. Free with paid admission.

In the middle of a howling snowstorm, a bus out of Kansas City pulls up at a cheerful roadside diner. What follows is a warm-hearted comedy, with some dramatic moments, that focuses on the love story between Cherie, the nightclub chanteuse, and Bo, the cowboy determined to pursue her. As a counterpoint to the main romance, the proprietor of the cafe, Grace, and the bus driver, Carl, at last find time to develop a friendship of their own.
