New Dream Depot play has characters a little like home World premiere of Adair County stage play is at Dream Depot this Saturday, June 30, 2007, with dazzling cast portraying characters developed by actors themselves. Plot centers around a hairdresser named "Peg" who is in hot pursuit of a third husband By Elaine Bennett A town more than just a little like Columbia, Adair County, KY, needs some answers: Will Sis Bertha keep the town straight? Will Red join the band? Will Prudence be a success with her new business? Will Peg find a new husband? Will cousin Mooney show up? The answers to these and other unimportant questions will be made known at the The Dream Depot 106 Jamestown St, Columbia, KY, when the musical play, "Oldies But Goodies" debuts at the Dream Depot this Saturday, June 30, 2007, with a repeat performance on July 7, 2007. This is one collaborative script which works. From a basic idea, each of the players was allowed to develop their own characters. Join some small town folks in the local beauty shop as their everyday life unfolds with this cast of characters: PEG (Peggy Lawson) A hairdresser twice widowed in hot pursuit of her third husband. She's one of the proprietors of the Curl Up & Dye Beauty Salon. She and DEE (Donna Feese), the other proprietor, can't seem to get WILLIE & SONNY ( Junior Feese & Sonny Vance) straight in their quest to form a band and go on the road. Then there's MERTIE & GERTIE (Trilby Vance & Elaine Bennett) the twins who are about as much alike as daylight & dark. No town would be complete without a "SISTER BERTHA better then you" (Diane Lemon) to keep everyone in line. Her husband ELROY (Michael Lemon) man of few words. MARTHA ( Beth Cahoe) The town hypochondriac has never seen a well day in her life and probabley never will. Her husband Brother JIM BOB (James Cahoe), the town preacher, who secretly wants to play in the band but is afraid of the wrath of Sis Bertha. PRUDENCE ( Patty G), a newcomer to town just opened up "Heavenly Hands massage/laundry/pet grooming/off track betting parlor." All the guys are taken with Ms. Prudy, much to the other girls' dismay. MS JUDY (Judy Somerville), the postmaster, is always good to help out with everyones problems, but is too helpful--by reading folks' postcards before they have a chance to. GILBERT (Gilbert Renfro) has just moved into town and is interested in playing and singing in the band but if Peg has her way , He'll be husband #3! RED (Gary Samuall) has just retired off the road singing in a big band and of course Willie & Sonny is trying to get him to join their band. He's not safe around Peg either but then what man is! The whole town is excited about Sonny's cousin MOONEY (Sonny Vance) coming to play and sing with the band, and another prospect for Peg! Saturdays, June 30, July 7th. Both shows start at 7:00pm. For reservations call: (270) 250-4064 or 634-2894. Admission: Adults $6 and children 12 and under $4. The Dream Depot is located just off the Square on Jamestown Street. Entrance is on the Reed Street side. There's plenty of parking just a few feet away from the door. This story was posted on 2007-06-25 12:59:03
