I hope you made it to see The Glass Menagerie. Director Fred Cuozzo, Producer Lucille Bills, Stage Manager Barbara Ruban and the stellar cast of Brian Remo, Mary Dolan Flaherty, Kristina Hernandez and Mike Burdick as well as our outstanding crew did Tennessee Williams proud.
Our last production for this season is "Don't Dress for Dinner" by Marc Camoletti. It's being directed by Linda Correll which, as long time members will attest, means another wonderful production.
Auditions for the Annual Talent Showcase will be held on April 24th from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00p.m. and on April 28th, from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. This year we're featuring a Broadway Theme. We'd like to have dancers, vocalists, magicians, comedians and specialty acts. This is a fund raiser for the theater, so please lend us your talent.
The plays which will comprise our 2012 -1213 season will be announced shortly.
See you at the theater.

SPECIAL EDITION NEWSLETTER Sept, 2011

Dear
Subscriber/Member/Patron:
We are looking foward to a tremendous season once again here at WCP. Our season line-up opens with the comedy, Squabbles, by Marshall Karp; followed by the murder-mystery, Rehearsal for Murder; then in celebration of Tenneesee Williams's 100 birtday, we will present The Glass Menagerie, and we close with the comedy, Don't Dress for Dinner by Marc Camoletti, author of Boeing-Boeing. This summer has been quite productive at the theater...we have begun construction of our new access to our lighting and sound booth, we had the fortune of having two Eagle Scout candidates perform some special projects at the theater: revamping our dressing room, installing a fence in parking area, placing a new sign on the corner, and some landscape improvement. We hope you will take notice of these improvements. We still have some additional improvements to make, and we hope these added improvements will continue to bring vitality to our theatre community. Please take time to read this update about the goings-on at WCP. We have some additional programs to offer you beyond our regular season productions. –JoAnne Lemenille President
