Mortlach Theatre; Hosted by the United Church, March 6 - 9, 2008
'Mrs B.", somewhere between the ages of 87 and 100, has a capacity for soup only matched in size by the vacancy in her mind... trying the resigned waitress Doris' patience and understanding.... But is she really that daft - or is she one smart gal? The Rockettes find their long lost leader after a 40 year search, in a village where the biggest entertainment is a grass fire. Bob seems to fight being discovered, but wait a minute, it actually looks like he's quite happy being loved by a bunch of crazy ladies who can't sing... a cast of colourful characters bring to life the warmth and sometimes craziness of living as human beings.... in a piece of paradise. Well done everyone, it was a blast. Written and directed my Marilyn Knarr - kudos to Marilyn for an evening full of laughter by bringing to life some village characters - that will not be soon forgotten!
(It's always fun to watch a cast that can barely keep from laughing out loud at the antics, themselves!)
