There will be just five performances of Neil Simon’s hilarious comedy “The Sunshine Boys” starring John Mazzarella and Fred Whitridge.

When vaudeville was at its peak, The Sunshine Boys, Willie Clark and Al Lewis were also at their peak. For 43 years, these two entertained audiences all over the country. Now, after eleven years of retirement, Lewis and Clark are being brought out of retirement for one more performance of their best known routine but this time for TV audiences.

Laughs galore. In true Neil Simon style, The Sunshine Boys is laugh out loud funny with a warm streak that will leave you feeling better for having seen this show.

Joining Mazzarella and Whitridge in The Sunshine Boys are Nick Hershenow, Gwyneth Burrill, Pat Ayers, Greg Ayers and Doug Bechtel. The Sunshine Boys is directed by Doug Bechtel.

The five performances of The Sunshine Boys are: Friday, June 18th, Saturday, June 19th and Friday through Sunday, June 25th through June 27th. All performances will be at 7:30 pm at the Grange. This play is suitable for all ages. Tickets are $10 and are available at Darvill’s Book Store, on-line at www.orcasactors.com or at the door. For additional information contact Doug Bechtel at 317-5601.
