Pewter Plough to Present Independence
The Pewter Plough Playhouse will present
Independence, a family drama by Lee Blessing, directed by Brent Harvey.
The play will open on Saturday, April 12, 2008, with our traditional
Champagne Opening Gala. It will continue for six weekends through May
18. The theater has been undergoing some renovations, and this will be
our grand re-opening.
Lee Blessing's story deals with four
women--a mother and her three grown daughters--each struggling for
independence from each other, yet trying to balance that with their need
for family love and comfort.
This is Brent Harvey's first play at the
Pewter Plough. The play features Anita Schwaber as Evelyn--the mother--T.C.
Witty as Kess, the oldest daughter who returns to the family fold
against her will, Jennifer Jane as Jo, the "reliable" middle sister, and
Alexandra Ruttschow as the rebelious youngest child.
A preview performance will be held at 7:30
PM on Friday, April 11. All Friday and Saturday evening performances
will begin at 7:30 PM. Matinees will be on Sundays, May 4, May 11, and
May 18 at 3:00 PM.
Ticket prices are $13.00 for the preview
performance, $25.00 for the Champagne Opening, and
$19.00-Regular/$16.00-Seniors for all other shows.
The Playhouse is located at Main Street at
Sheffield in Cambria's West Village. For reservations, call 927-3877 or
