Where can two sisters on the other side of fifty, who want to add a little zest, fun and excitement to their lives, find it? Bingo! On any Bingo night at St. Joseph's, you can find Father Mac, Lonnie and Cindy Conklin, Marge Meranski, Coach Anderson, and the many off beat, colorful regulars we meet through the eyes of Sis and Babe. They dish the dirt, giggle like school girls and share old memories. Sis and Babe are sisters and best friends. They've been coming to play Bingo together for years because they love it. Sis is a good loser who just loves to play. Babe is a player who has always got to win. Sis is naturally fit and trim. Babe is naturally overweight and always fighting the battle of the bulge. Sis is content in her widowhood. Babe is still looking for love. They compliment each other in ways only sisters can and they drive each other crazy in that same sisterly fashion. On this particular night, Babe and Sis share something new as they each confesses a secret and finds a special kind of redemption.

In addition to a fun-filled show featuring all-local talent, dancing, singing and Hee-Haw-type one-liners, a "champagne picnic" will be provided immediately following the production.
"In order to join in with the theme, we ask our patrons to come dressed in their best overalls, blue jeans, checkered shirts, cowboy boots, hats (you will need to take them off during the show), and bandanas, or poodle skirts and pony tails" says Loretta Geotis, general manager of MCT. "This is a little bit hillbilly and a little bit rock 'n roll, so plan to bring some friends and have a fun evening."
When Harry Douglas, the new American Ambassador to Great Britain, tells his wife and daughter that he is going to Scotland for the weekend, they each announce plans of their own. Their newly hired British butler Perkins watches stoically as each one leaves, then secretly returns for a romantic rendezvous in what they assume is an empty house. Harry's clumsy secretary and the bumbling Marine in charge of Embassy Security arrive in the wake of a bomb threat and the house is sealed off, with hilarious results.
Truvy's Beauty Salon in Chinquapin, Louisiana is the setting for Steel Magnolias. Over a period of several years, we follow the lives, loves and losses of six women. We meet them as they come to the Beauty Salon for their weekly appointments: they are a varied group, of different ages, temperaments and fortunes, but they are united by their determination to overcome life's setbacks. With self-confidence, humor, strength and love the women support each other through the ups and downs, the triumphs and tragedies of daily life.
On the night of his 35th birthday, confirmed bachelor Robert contemplates his unmarried state. In a series of unique vignettes, we are introduced to his friends who keep him "COMPANY"… "those good and crazy people, his married friends", as Robert weighs the pros and cons of married life. In the end he realizes being alone is just being alone and we all need someone by our side to really feel and survive life, to truly experience the wonder of "Being Alive!" Expect clever, glorious music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim!

Four couples are at the townhouse of a deputy New York City mayor and his wife to celebrate their tenth wedding anniversary. The party never begins because the host has shot himself in the head (it's only a flesh wound) and his wife is missing. His lawyer's cover up, gets progressively more difficult to sustain as the other guests arrive and nobody can remember who has been told what about whom. Doors slam and hilarity abounds as the couples get more and more crazed. Rumors is among the most popular plays for high school production according to the International Thespian Society.
