Congratulations Amanda (and Bob too!!)

I have very exciting news. Amanda has received the leading role in this year’s production by the Applause Players called, “The Great Penelope” - another original zany script from Miss Laura West. Amanda is very honored and thrilled to receive such an exciting opportunity.

Penelope is a 12-year girl who thinks her life is dull and unfair. When she finds herself in a situation she doesn’t like, she uses her imagination to create the world she wants. But, when she does this, she makes the situation worse. There is quite the cast of characters in this play, including Penelope’s annoying little sister, Emily, and her average, unexciting, loving, yet annoying parents.

Speaking of Penelope’s parents, that leads me to my next exciting announcement. The role of Penelope’s father will played by Amanda’s real-life father… Bob Rice!!! He will be singing and dancing as well.

So, you can’t miss “The Great Penelope.” You are in for a big treat. This full-blown musical comedy production will be presented May 3rd & 4th at the Everett Historic Theater!

Tickets go on sale starting in March at $8.00 general admission, $5.00 for seniors, and are free for children 5 and under. General admission rates goes up in April to $10 and then $12 if purchased in May. I will send out another email in February as a reminder.
