SC_Dearly BelovedDEARLY BELOVED
Presented by Stagecrafters Inc.
May 10-18
Sharonville

Directed by Michael L. Morehead

Cast: Kevin Noll, Cynthia Ballard Mottel, Renee Maria, Nancy Marchese, Eric Thomas, Richard Zenk, Elizabeth Beatty Penrod, Marcia Nugent Grant, Ray Lebowski, Traci Taylor & Betty Coulter

The Futrelle sisters, Frankie, Honey Rae and Twink, are throwing a wedding. Frankie has almost made herself sick with elaborate preparations for her daughter Tina Jo’s antebellum inspired wedding and the rumor mill in their small town of Fayro, Texas, is working overtime. No surprise there, the Futrelle Sisters have never been strangers to gossip. After all, they did survive the scandalous break-up of their almost-famous gospel singing trio, the Sermonettes. In spite of her own marital problems, Frankie has held steadfastly to the hope that she could pull off one “final Futrelle occasion” with style and elegance, with the help of the cantankerous wedding coordinator, Miss Geneva, who runs the local flower shop/bus depot. But on the day of the nuptials Frankie’s hope begins to dim. Will the wedding come off without a hitch and what has Clovis Sanford’s House of Meat got to do with it? Will the Sermonettes reunite? You’ll just have to see this rollicking comedy to find out.
