Hudson Players Ready to Open Laugh-Packed Comedy: 
"Lie, Cheat & Genuflect"

Theater Group to Team with Hudson's Restaurant for Opening Night Reception
and Dinner and Show Package 

 

The Hudson Players are preparing to open their 65th Anniversary season,
Friday November 6 with the laugh-packed comedy farce - Lie, Cheat &
Genuflect, written by Billy Van Zandt and Jane Milmore. The season is
sponsored in part by The Hudson Community Foundation and The Hudson Rotary.
Opening night audiences will also be invited out after the production to
Hudson's Restaurant on the Green for a special reception and opportunity to
mingle with the cast and crew. Hudson's Restaurant has also teamed with the
Hudson Players once again to offer their popular dinner and show packages
throughout this anniversary season (providing couples the opportunity to get
dinner for two and Hudson's and two theater tickets for the value price of
$59). Further details and tickets are available on the Hudson Players
website (www.hudsonplayers.com) or by calling the box office at
330-655-8522.

 

According to the Players, the play offers an opportunity for those that just
want to get out and laugh in a very light hearted fun filled evening. 

 

 Lie, Cheat & Genuflect tells the story of the Buckle brothers who spend all
the money they have playing the horses which forces them to borrow money
from a loan shark, Pizza Face Petrillo who now he wants his money-or else!
When the brothers' rich grandfather passes away they devise a scheme to
somehow get some money they know they won't inherit. Add a stuffy lawyer, a
nun costume, a hard-drinking, man-hungry housekeeper and a trio of beautiful
women and you have a laugh-packed farce of twists, turns and prat-falls.
Fast paced, funny with plenty of mistaken identities and big laughs!

 "With all the serious issues facing everyone today we thought our audiences
would enjoy a chance to just sit back and laugh," said Michelle Dolciato,
one of the show's producers. "Lie, Cheat & Genuflect" gives them that
opportunity in full force with a traditional fast paced farce and plenty of
rapid humor that doesn't stop until the curtain falls. Of course, with a
show like this, we think folks will actually still be laughing well into
their ride home."

 

Lie, Cheat & Genuflect is being directed by Alex Nine and produced by
Marianne Karlson and Michelle Dolciato. The show features Mark Judy, Keith
Allison, Kim Mahoney, Pam Matthews, Sue Jeromson, Kristi Ferber, Adam
Leventhal and Marco Urbanic.


Performance dates are November 6, 7, 13, 14, 20 & 21. Tickets are $12 and
are available now via the web at www.HudsonPlayers.com or by calling
330-655-8522. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Group, student and senior discounts are
available. 


The Hudson Players are located right in the heart of Hudson, Ohio in the
Barlow Community Center and are one of the area's longest running community
theaters currently celebrating their 65th Season. With a rich history of
great shows, community involvement and an ultra-friendly performing
environment the group embodies its unofficial slogan of "good shows, good
