Ponca Playhouse’s crowd-pleasing The Odd Couple, opened last weekend, September 12th to rave reviews! This weekend, September 19th - 21st, Friday and Saturday evening at 7:30pm and Sunday matinees at 2pm is your last chance to see this great show!
Director Lance Garrett says, “It’s fantastic to be working again with the Ponca Playhouse and all the dedicated artists collaborating on The Odd Couple! I am so excited to be directing this hilarious play from one of America’s most successful playwrights.”
Garrett notes the stage manager is veteran actress and director Sam Stuart, and the cast is packed “with acting power,” so you don’t want to miss the production. The cast features well-known actors Jake Arington as Oscar Madison and Ryan Brown as Felix Ungar. Rounding out the cast are J.P. Mays, Troy Sheets, John Andrew, Blake Brown, Alee Hunt and Carli Arington.
Ponca Playhouse Board president Meghann Borum says, “Our 67th Season at the Playhouse focuses on relationships—friends, lovers, parents and children, and more. It’s a reflection that is good for all of us, and we are proud to bring these moments to our stage.”
Borum also welcomes our community members to become involved as volunteers since there are so many areas in which people can serve. “Most of us have made some of our best friends through the theatre. It’s a place people from all walks of life come together with a common goal.”
If you are interested in becoming involved in your community theater, please contact the theater or get in touch with one of the board members when you come to the show! For productions, you can audition, help in a variety of crew positions, sew/make costumes, or help with ushering, concessions and more during the run of the show. There are also committees that assist with production areas, work with membership, help find sponsors and advertisers, and more. Just ask to find out where you might be able to help!
