Simon will open Aurora Community Theatre's golden anniversary season. 
The show opens Oct. 30 and runs through Nov. 21. In the play, four 
sophisticated couples try to get their story straight after arriving for 
dinner at the home of the New York City Deputy Mayor, to discover their 
host is shot and their hostess is missing.

Aurora Community Theatre's 50th season kicks off with Neil Simon's "Rumors."

The curtain will go up at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays Oct. 30 through 
Nov. 21.

"Rumors" takes a look at what happens when four sophisticated couples 
try to get their story straight after arriving for dinner at the home of 
the New York City Deputy Mayor, to discover their host is shot and their 
hostess is missing. Comic complications abound when everyone tries to 
manage the message and conceal the evening's events from local police 
and media.

"It was Sir Walter Scott who declared 'what a tangled web we weave, when 
first we practice to deceive,'" director Barbara L. Rhoades said. 
"However, he forgot to say how very funny it can be as well. So, Neil 
Simon corrected that oversight when he wrote this wonderful American farce."

The upscale drawing-room comedy features a talented cast: Eric Oswald 
(Lenny Ganz); Jen Klika (Claire Ganz); Adam Young (Ken Gorman); Chris 
White (Chris Gorman); Michael Green (Glenn Cooper); Tari Lyn Bergoine 
(Cassie Cooper); Kathy Steiner (Cookie Cusack); Mark Moore (Ernie 
Cusack); Sharon Brandon (Officer Welsh); and Deb Young (Officer Pudney).

Marianne Paul is producer, while Towar Vilas serves as both assistant 
director and stage manager. Young will manage props in addition to her 
onstage role. Don "Arbie" Arbuckle led ACT's construction team: Tom 
Dean, Greg Fetzer, Mark Howard, Bernie Keister, Bob Levy and Daniel 
White. Fetzer oversees both lighting and sound with assistance from Zach 
Wells and Marcy Sykes, while Jean Arbuckle contributed her creative 
flair to set decoration. Adding their talents to a successful show are 
Dorothy Edwards, house manager, Linda Balwinski, program coordinator and 
Vicki Rizzo Prato, hospitality.
