beyond boundaries gets musical with
new revue |
||

In March, PLT’s Beyond
Boundaries Outreach Program will debut a new musical revue that will
entertain people of all ages. The goal of the program is to take theatre to
people who may never have experienced a live stage show or who are not able
to travel to Pensacola Little Theatre. In the coming weeks, residents of The
Blake, Sterling House, and Specialty Center of Pensacola will have a chance
to enjoy the show. In addition, Beyond Boundaries will provide free drama and
dance workshops to qualifying organizations including |

It’s amazing how many
people don’t realize that Pensacola Little Theatre is a community theatre
that utilizes local volunteer talent onstage and back stage. Whether you’ve worked
in theatre for years or just think it sounds like fun, we welcome you to try
out for a role or volunteer to join the backstage crew. The two plays we’re
holding auditions for this month are polar opposites. 12 Angry Jurors is a heavy drama about a group of jurors deliberating the fate of a
young man accused of murdering his father. The play begins as the 12 file
into the jury room and take the first vote. Eleven people vote guilty, but
one person believes the case – and the fate of the accused
– deserve more consideration. The director is Lawrence Gamell, Jr., who brings to PLT a wealth of professional
acting and directing experience. Just check out his page on the Internet Movie Database. Auditions for 12
Angry Jurors are March 8 & 9 at 7pm. If comedy’s more your thing, our next auditions are for Run For Your Wife, a British farce about a bigamous cab driver who’s trying to keep his secret safe from both wives after he’s mugged and ends up in the hospital. The comedy keeps up a frantic pace that requires perfectly timed entrances and exits to keep audiences laughing. Directing the play is Maureen McNeill, an experienced performer who recently appeared at PLT in “The Women” and “Christmas Belles.” Auditions for Run
For Your Wife are March 22 and 23 at 7pm. |

PROPERTIES COMMITTEE TO ORGANIZE THE “CLOSET” Volunteers needed to keep PLT’s prop collection in order |
||
|
Regular Volunteer and Artistic Committee member Barbara Parker is taking on the huge project of getting the prop storage area organized, and she can’t do it alone. If you would like to be a part of this important effort, the first meeting and work day for the new Props Committee will be on Friday, March 5, at 10am in the main PLT Props room next to the Box Office. Barbara says, “We're going to talk goals, review props spaces, and ‘put away’ stray props (aren't they all strays?).” She is open to suggestions and says, “as long as we get the job done, I'm very happy.” The plan is to work two or three hours on Friday and to set dates and times for future work sessions. If you have any questions, feel free to call Barbara at 850-341-8002 or email her at pensacoladiva@gmail.com. |
