Forget Your Troubles, Come On Get Happy!

We are working hard to make our upcoming season fantastic! Dates have been set, rehearsals are ongoing, and we're looking forward to entertaining you! Our goal is to lift your spirits, fill the theatre with laughter, and send you on your way with a big smile on your face. We want you to be so excited about what you've seen that you go straight home and call everybody you know and tell them that they just CAN"T miss this one!

We also want to encourage you to join us as a volunteer. We love the creative process, and we enjoy working together. We work hard, but we have a lot of fun, and we think it's a great way to contribute to our community. We have some experts among us, and others who are learning new skills with each production.

2009-2010 Season

The Odd Couple (Female Version) by Neil Simon; directed by Dena Greene.

November 20, 21, 27, 28, at 8 PM; Sundays, Nov 22 and 29 at 3 PM
Neil Simon’s most popular play takes on a new look with the reversal of gender in all of the roles. The names may have changed, but the same mayhem ensues when two friends try to occupy the same apartment following the breakup of a marriage. When Florence Unger leaves her husband and sets up housekeeping with Olive Madison, it will take the whole Trivial Pursuit playing group to avoid a murder. Florence’s penchant for a fastidious life style is too disruptive for the laid back Olive, and she soon is driven to wits end by the organization of her “new life.”

The pair shares everything, including one of the most hysterical double dates in the history of theatre. The entire cast of The Odd Couple is set to help you “get happy” and leave the theatre with a smile on your face.

Suds, The Rocking 60's Musical Soap Opera, created and written by Melinda Gilb, Steve Gunderson, and Bryan Scott. Directed by Vicky Thomasson; Musical Direction by Bob Thomasson.

Weekends: April 23, 24, 30, May 1, 7, and 8 at 8 PM;Sundays: April 25, May 2 and 9 at 3 PM;Tuesdays: April 27 and May 4 at 8 PM
Oh the 60's! It was the decade to remember! We were watching Dick Clark, Jack Benny, and the Flintstones. You could impress with a muscle car for $2200, gas it up for 25¢ a gallon, or send a letter for a nickel. Our spring fling this season is on the spin cycle of love that reaches heavenly heights and captures the character of the early 60's! In SUDS, meet Cindy, an attendant at the local Laundromat, celebrating a birthday that is heading down "the drain." It all comes out in "the wash" as "One Fine Day" DeeDee, Margie and a "host" of characters create havoc in helping Cindy to "rinse" her troubles away and BOUNCE back from the mishaps of her life. The TIDE is coming in, bringing ALL the great sounds of the 60's that can CHEER anybody up. The 50 or so chart- blasters - Do Wa Diddy, Locomotion, Respect, Chapel of Love, and Mr. Postman - to name just a few - come alive as Bob, Ray, Tony, John, Watt, Tommy and Boo are back to create The SUDS BAND, and WHISK us away to this magical time in musical history.

Beverly Cleary's Ramona Quimby, dramatized by Len Jenkin; directed by Sandy Slayton.

June 17, 18 at 8 PM; Saturday, June 19 at 10 AM and 8 PM; June 20 at 3 PM
As this beloved children’s series by Beverly Cleary comes to life on stage, Ramona will make you forget your troubles as she deals with life’s ups and downs on Klickitat Street. Remember how huge every little thing seems to an 8 year old? Well, Ramona has problems coming at her from every side. Her teacher is unfair, her big sister is a know-it-all, her family has money problems, and nobody will take her seriously! Ramona’s plucky spirit and creativity will have you smiling, remembering how you once tackled the world’s problems with the boundless energy and unflappable optimism only a 3rd grader possesses. Writer Len Jenkins shows us that even when things are not going our way, they can be turned around with a little family support and a bit of humor. This story offers something for everyone, young and old!
