Western Reserve Playhouse presents "It Runs in the Family" by Ray Cooney Directed by Jim Volkert June 2, 3, 9, 10, 16 & 17 @ 8PM Britain's master farceur Ray Cooney is at it again!

Dr. Mortimer tries to fend off a paternity suit, his wife, a punkish daughter & various other lunatics so that he may, at last, deliver the Ponsonby Lecture in an international conference. This is farce at its best as the situation spins hilariously out of control in typical Ray Cooney fashion. One character after another is bounding through doors that swing or slam in the doctor's lounge at St. Andrews Hospital & some are even crawling along the snowy ledge outside. Tickets: 13.00 Adults $11.00 Seniors and Students Reservation Line: 330-620-7314<tel:(330)%20620-7314> The theatre is located at 3326 Everett Road, Richfield, OH.
