"The Drunkard" revolves around a villain "of the deepest dye", Squire Cribbs, who determines to bring about the ruination of Edward Middleton, the hero with a lesson to learn. In the process he wreaks havoc on dear Mrs. Wilson and her sweet daughter, Mary, the heroine. Will Edward's poor, demented sister, Agnes, ever regain her sanity, and what drove her mad? Can William Dowton, a simple rustic, expose the villain? And will Arden Rencelaw, the wealthy philanthropist, save the day or send the drunkard to prison forever! The play abounds with humor, but, like Jane Austin's "Pride and Prejustice", it is a beautifully crafted drama. It is full of twists and turns, deep yearnings, and the conflict between heart wrenching despair and eternal hope. "The Drunkard" is for people age six and older. Younger children will enjoy the spectacle and action but will not understand some of the language. In the end, the moral is clear, "drink, un-checked, is the sure road to ruin." Come and join in the fun: cheer our heroine, hiss and boo the villain and applaud the good and true!

| Description: |
In "The Scheme of the Driftless Shifter", we a see small theatre troupe do its best to entertain the audience with a classic melodrama. The father, Henry Pompington, tries to protect his family and his darling daughters Petunia and Marigold from whatever danger surely lurks outside their small house. When Petunia reveals that she loves the penniless upstart Victor Strongheart, her father becomes outraged and vows never to allow her to marry. Then Rex Holmes, the dastardly villain arrives to kidnap Marigold and hold her for ransom, and it looks like all hope is lost. However, along the way, nothing seems to go right for the actors. See them try to save the show amidst forgotten entrances, phantom door knocks, and even a set that falls apart. Throw into the mix an overly anxious director with a stage manager who wants nothing but to work her way onto the stage, and the recipe for disastrous success is complete. Can Victor save the day and redeem himself in Pompington's eyes? Will Holmes succeed and get his money? Will Pompington remember his lines? Can ANYONE manage to say "Shiftless Drifter"? Come for a night full of laughs as we poke fun at the classic melodrama and at the art of theatre itself.
"The Scheme of the Driftless Schifter" will play on Friday, July 4th at 3:00 PM, Saturday, July 5th at 11:00 AM and Sunday, July 6th at 7:30 PM
All tickets $7.00
