Stray Dog Theatre presents The Great American Trailer Park Christmas Musical




Stray Dog Theatre presents THE GREAT AMERICAN TRAILER PARK CHRISTMAS MUSICAL

Regional Premiere! In this sequel to the original show [the runaway hit of 2013 at Stray Dog Theatre], Betty, Lin and Pickles jingle all the way with some new neighbors in Florida’s Armadillo Acres Mobile Home Park. All is calm and bright with holiday beer until the local Scrooge is stricken by a freak bout of amnesia, putting neighborly love to the test. Just as much cat-fightin’, sun-worshippin’, chair-throwin’ as the first, but with tinsel and Keg Nog to boot!

        First Run Theatre presents Stereo Heart


                      

  
The play is set in a rundown Stereo and TV repair shop in St. Louis, Missouri.  Theo Freeman and Sunny Freeman, a father and son team, run the shop.  The two men both have checkered past and an explosive secret they share.  The two men discover half-million dollars’ worth of cocaine in the back of one of the TVs and devise a scheme to sell the drug.  They soon find out the drugs are the property of a drug kingpin, Three Thumbs Hank.
Georgette, the matriarch of the family, unaware of intrigue that’s unfolding in her household, sells metal drums that the men have stored the drug.  When Theo and Sunny discover the drums have been sold, they make a desperate attempt to retrieve them.  Three Thumb Hank returns and demands his merchandize. The family is thrown into chaos, secrets are revealed, dreams are scattered resulting in tragic consequence.

Quail Valley Country Club is holding their annual golf tournament and club manager, Mr. Bingham, is so confident that his club will win that he places a huge wager on the outcome.  Things go into the rough when Bingham’s best golfer decides to play for the rival club and a last minute replacement must be found.  Unexpected comedy ensues as the tournament is threatened by bad weather, a lost engagement ring, a broken arm, and romantic mischief.  A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life, and man’s eternal love affair with….golf.

 

 
 



       Alton Little Theater presents Alone Together


                      

 

Alton Little Theater's newest Season Director, Jean Heil will be reviving a hit comedy just in time to shake away the winter blahs! Jean has been a popular comedic actress with ALT audiences and decided to expand the scope of her roles at ALT. Jean will serve as President of the organization for the 82nd Season and she will direct the January comedy and then  turn right around and co-direct the March musical SHENANDOAH for the Community Theater. ALONE TOGETHER was first staged under the direction of Birdine Groshong back in  1987 but Jean thought the timeless themes of the show will still resonate with todays' audience. The Comedy delighted audiences on Broadway with Janis Paige and Kevin McCarthy playing a middle aged couple whose children have finally left the nest. They are alone together, but not for long. All three sons come charging back home after experiencing some hard knocks in the real world, and Mom and Dad have quite a time pushing them out. The classic parent dilemma of loving your kids - but wanting them to become autonomous adults still seems to be a theme for today's families. Claudia Herndon and Randy Hoven will take on the roles of parents in ALT's production; sons and girlfriend are played by Nicholas Trapp, Patrick Conway, Brant McCance and Kiersten Connolly.

The production will run for eight performances, opening on January 15th and running through January 25th. Evening performances are at 7:30 Thursday - Saturday and Sunday Matinees are at 2pm. Adults Tickets are $17 and prices for  patrons under 18 are just $10. Tickets are available on-line at http://www.altonlittletheater.org and ticket information is also available by calling 462-6562. Interviews with the director can be arranged by contacting Jean Heil: jeanheil.heil@gmail.com
