February 6th
through the 8th, The Theatre Program will be putting on two one
acts each night starting at 7 p.m. Both plays will be comedies, and are sure to
fill Greer with laughter galore. Be sure to check it out and support our
talented young actors.
The first play is
a comedy, with a mostly female, cast titled Chamber
Music. This piece is about a group of women in an insane asylum that all
believe they are famous women from history such as; Amelia Earhart, Osa Johnson, Gertrude Stein, and Joan of
Ark. The piece is quite comical, with several great moments that will suck you
in. What do they want? Is someone out to get them? Can they defend themselves against the inherent dangers of the asylum? All questions you will be asking yourself during this rollercoaster of a meeting they will be attending.
The second play
is a comedy about a young Napoleon Bonaparte (played by Caleb Chase in one of
his last performances at CCC) caught in a battle of wits with a sly young woman
(up and coming freshman Audrey Fox) titled The
Man of Destiny. This is a brilliant piece by noted author George Bernard Shaw. Shaw is possibly best know for his play Pygmalion that was later turned into the Musical My Fair Lady. The piece also stars two great side characters; an Italian
innkeeper, and a self-confident young lieutenant. Their are plenty of great
moments of conversational humor that is sure to leave the audience with rib
cramps.
Audience members
will be seated on the stage and will be only a few feet from the actors. So get
ready for some up close and personal moments from the characters. Be sure to
come out to see what is sure to be a night of laughter and cheers.
