Workshop Players' "The Second Time Around", by Henry Denker, Opens May 3!
by Workshop Players 27 Apr '18

27 Apr '18

*The Second Time Around*, by Henry Denker, directed by Dave Stacko Director Dave Stacko propels us back to the early 80s with *The Second Time Around*. Not only is it the second time around for this script at Workshop Players, it is also the second time around for senior citizens Samuel Jonas and Laura Curtis, a widower and a widow who strike up a love affair. The potential loss of social security benefits make living in sin more attractive than tying the knot; that is until their grown children become involved. The erstwhile couple’s offspring are not free of neuroses themselves, shown clearly as they raise their objections to what they perceive to be their parents’ precarious situation. Laughs will abound as this comedy unfolds. Cast: Dave Stacko, Marcia Hesselgrave, Julie Marchand, Matt Tomecko, Shelbey Linder, Kevin Boland, Joe Billingsley and Rachel Suhy Performances are May 3, 4, 5, 11, 12, 13, 18, 19, 20 *NOTE*: Shows now start at 7:30 p.m.; Sunday matinees are still at 3 p.m. Doors open 45 minutes before show time. Tickets are $15 each. Group rates available. -- Workshop Players 44820 Middle Ridge Road, Amherst, OH 44001 Box Office: 440-988-5613 (Box Office hours: 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.) contact(a)workshopplayers.com www.workshopplayers.com "If all the world's a stage, I want better lighting!"
