  Moon Over Buffalo by Ken Ludwig Getting Ready for October 16 Opening 

   In one week, Ken Ludwig’s raucous comedy, Moon Over Buffalo, which is a Samuel French production, will be performed by the Canal Fulton Players.  The play will be presented on October 16-18 and 23-25, 2009 at the United Methodist Church of Canal Fulton, 363 West Cherry Street, Canal Fulton, Ohio.  The play deals with an aging traveling repertory company in 1953, led by two fading Broadway flash in the pans, George and Charlotte Hay.  Things have gotten so bad for the troupe that George and Charlotte are on the verge of a marital breakup.  This breakup started when their daughter, Rosalind, left the company to pursue a career in advertising.  Complicating matters are no money, Hollywood's reluctance to cast two aging Broadway stars in a blockbuster movie, and a supporting actress who discovers that she has a real bad personal problem.   What happens next as they realize that there is light at the end of the tunnel which has numerous twists, turns and obstacles will have you laughing hysterically.  Just remember- Frank Capra.
      Starring in the lead roles of Charlotte and George Hay are Kathy Devus and Mike Daniel.  Kathy previously played the part of Rosalind in the play in 1998 at the North Canton Playhouse while Mike played George in 2000 at the Carnation Players.  They are complemented by Jon Neumann as Paul, the rather nervous and love struck business agent for the acting troupe, and Lisa Van Gaasbeek as Rosalind Hay, George and Charlotte’s estranged daughter who has fled the theatre to pursue a career in advertising.  Rosalind’s fiancé, Howard, the consummate nerd and a television weatherman by trade, is played by newcomer Nathan Sickman.  Just remember that it all involves barometric pressure.
      Ethel, Charlotte’s mother and the troupe‘s jack of all trades, is played by Linda Ryan while Richard Maynard, the acting troupe’s lawyer, is played by Bill Brown.  Rounding out the cast is Eileen, the young actress who causes a great deal of headaches, who is played by Sarah Price.  
      The play will be presented on October 16-17 and 23-24 at 8:00 pm.  It will be presented on October 18 and 25 at 7:00 pm.  Admission is $7.00 for adults and $5.00 for seniors and children under the age of 12.  There will be a dinner theatre on October 24 and the cost is $17.00 for adults and $15.00 for seniors and children under the age of 12.  There are already sixty six reservations and there are 100 seats.  The dinner consists of cranberry chicken, mashed potatoes, candied carrots, crunchy cole slaw, dessert and beverage.  Please call David Van Gaasbeek if you wish to make a reservation for October 24.

   For further information, please call David Van Gaasbeek at 330-854-4387 or 330-494-1022.
