We’ll Save You a Seat!
MOONLIGHT AND MAGNOLIAS by Ron Hutchinson Directed by Peggy Trecker White October 21 – November 7, 2010 1939 Hollywood is abuzz. After only 3 weeks, producer David O. Selznick has halted production on his epic film, "Gone With The Wind." He pulls director Victor Fleming off the set of "The Wizard of Oz" and elicits the help of screenwriter Ben Hecht (who read only one page of GWTW and loathed it). Moonlight and Magnolias delightfully chronicles one of the strangest, funniest, most successful and almost true stories in movie history. Frankly my dear, this is one funny play- NY Daily News
THE PAVILION by Craig Wright Directed by Blake White December 2 – 19, 2010 It’s Peter’s 20th high school reunion, and he’s determined to make things right with Kari, the high school sweetheart he deserted after learning she was pregnant. An omniscient narrator plays former classmates and friends who help the two explore the consequences of decisions made long ago. In a comic, touching, often poetic way, The Pavilion looks at love, both lost and found, and the strength to carry on, in spite of regrets. Hailed by critics as “an Our Town for our time”
A MUSICAL TRIBUTE TO AL BALKIN January 6 – 9, 2011 A special production celebrating Al’s 15-year association with SCRC, this show is a combination of Al’s own work plus a musical tribute to him by some of the Lowcountry’s most talented musicians.
GOLF WITH ALAN SHEPARD by Carter W. Lewis Directed by Tom Evans February 10 – 27, 2011 Four seasoned gentlemen on a golf course—a perfect Hilton Head Island play! Griff, Milt, Larkin and Ned meet once a week to play a round of golf. They solve the world’s problems, air out their own, and reflect on their lives both on and off the course. Golf with Alan Shepard takes the audience on a fun-filled day on the Fairway, with plenty of one-liners and delightful musings on mortality. more one-liners than a Neil Simon triple bill- Philadelphia Weekly
ELEEMOSYNARY by Lee Blessing Directed by Chip Egan March 24 – April 3, 2011 Meet the Westbrook woman: 16-year old Echo, her 75-year old grandmother, Dorothea, and her middle-aged mom, Artie. Echo is caring for her stroke stricken grandmother—Echo is also determined to bring the alienated women back together. With poignant glimpses into the complicated lives of these three women, Eleemosynary explores what happens when expectations are unrealistic and forgiveness seems unreachable. a wonderful job of playwriting- Minneapolis Star & Tribune
