— from Doug Bechtel —
The Actors Theater of Orcas Island is pleased to announce seven performances of the rollicking, laugh-out-loud comedy “Mama Won’t Fly.”
What happens when Norleen’s son, Walker, is getting married in California and mama lives in Birmingham, Alabama and won’t fly? A road trip, of course, as Norleen (Lesley Liddle), Savannah (Luann Pamatian) and Hayley (Rebecca Herman) set off to drive to California and see the sights and visit family along the way. At the same time Savannah is searching for a long lost love to bring some happiness back into her life after two disastrous marriages.
Just about everything that can go wrong does as 14 actors take on the 25 roles of family, friends and strangers as the three women make their journey.
“Mama Won’t Fly” opens on Friday, February 20th with additional performances on February 21, 27, 28 and March 6,7,8. All performances are at the Grange and start at 7:30 pm.
Tickets are $10 and are available at Darvills, on-line at www.orcasactors.com and at the door. This play is suitable for all ages. For additional information, contact Doug Bechtel at 360-317-5601.
