The Greenville Little Theatre is pleased to announce the 2008-2009 season. A great lineup of performances is planned. The season is as follows:
- Always…Patsy Cline = A musical by Ted Swindley = September 2008
Always...Patsy Cline is the popular musical about Patsy Cline’s relationship with adoring fan and housewife Louise Seger. It’s the story of a friendship that evolved from a chance meeting - the kind of relationship that many fans would like to have with their heroes. Memorable songs include “Crazy,” “Your Cheatin’ Heart,” “I Fall to Pieces,” and “Walking After Midnight.”
- Agatha Christie’s Appointment with Death = A drama by Agatha Christie = October - November 2008
The master of mystery is at it again! An elderly, domineering, American matriarch has a rendezvous with death in the desert heat of Jerusalem.
- Inherit the Wind = By Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee = February - March 2009
This outstanding drama by Jerome Lawrence & Robert E. Lee centers on the famous Scopes Monkey Trial. Fresh off a recent Broadway revival, it’s the story of a high school teacher who’s jailed for teaching Darwin’s famous book, Origin of the Species. Two of the most famous lawyers of the era are brought in to represent the opposing sides, making it the trial of the century.
- Leading Ladies = A comedy by Ken Ludwig = April 2009
In this hilarious farce by Broadway’s reigning comic playwright, Ken Ludwig (Lend me a Tenor), two actors find themselves so down on their luck that they’re performing at a Moose Lodge in rural Pennsylvania. When they hear that an old lady in York, PA is about to die and leave her fortune to her two long lost English relatives, the fun begins and the comedy abounds.
- Carousel= Musical score by Rodgers and Hammerstein = June 2009
Rodgers and Hammerstein’s magical, beguiling, and hopeful musical about a man who really didn’t know how to love his wife and child until too late features a beautiful score including “You’ll Never Walk Alone,” “Mister Snow,” “If I Loved You,” and “June is Bustin’ Out All Over.”
- Christmas Special (not part of the season subscription)
