Nancy Drew is back! This July, the Dover Players community theater group presents Nancy Drew and the Gold Bug Treasure, written and adapted by Todd Evangelista and Madchen Hirsch and directed by Todd Evangelista. Nancy Drew and the Gold Bug Treasure An old miser named Hawthorne was inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Gold Bug" to ask Poe to hide his fortune from his greedy sons so that only the wisest would inherit his wealth. Shortly before his death, Poe delivered a coded letter to each of the four sons, but their greed kept the family members from working together to find the treasure for 100 years. Now in 1950, Professor Kelly has found the missing Emerson Letter and gathered the family members who have the other three letters to try to find the treasure. However, someone has stolen the Emerson letter from the professor, and it is up to Nancy Drew to find the lost letter and recover the hidden Gold Bug Treasure. During intermission, audience members will have a chance to answer the following questions based on clues provided in the program insert: Who stole the professor's letter? and, How did you figure it out?.

Weathervane Playhouse Names Finalists in 10 Minute Play Contest
by Eileen Moushey via NEohioPAL 30 Jun '15

30 Jun '15

WEATHERVANE PLAYHOUSE ANNOUNCES 8 FINALIST PLAYS FOR 8X10 THEATREFEST Forensics Investigators take on a puzzling murder case which quickly spirals out of control and leads to one, unbelievable conclusion. A longtime, unhappily married husband and wife are obliged to play The Happy Couple when meeting their daughter's future in-laws. A young man has to face his fears when sheltered in a basement during a tornado with his slightly oddball neighbors. These are the scenarios of three of the eight plays which will be presented at Weathervane Playhouse on July 10, 11, 12 at the Fifth Annual 8x10 TheatreFest. All the plays have two things in common - each is 10 minutes long and all feature a hand mirror as a prop. The mirror served as the "inspiration" for this year's contest. Over 230 plays were submitted to the Weathervane contest and volunteer judges read and chose these as the top plays. All Finalist playwrights receive at least a $50 prize, and the top three - as determined by audience vote, will receive $150, $250, and $350. Audiences will also choose the special prop "inspiration" for next year's competition. "So far, six of the playwrights are traveling to Weathervane to see their plays come to life," says 8x10 Coordinator, Eileen Moushey. "And that's part of our excitement, too. Plus, it's great fun for the audiences to be able to choose the winners!" Performances of the eight plays are 8pm on Friday, July 10 and Saturday, July 11. Sunday's performance is a matinee at 2:30pm, followed by a reception and announcement of the winners. Tickets are $10. The Finalist plays are: MAKE-UP by Joe Lauinger of Ossining, NY, directed by Brian Westerley and featuring Richard Worswick and Sue Jeromson. MY SECOND PLAY by Heath Robertson of Fairbanks AK, directed by Meg Hopp and featuring Kyla Williger, Jay Sigler, and Mason Shuman. MR. BASSETT by Gerald Williams of Vancouver, BC, Canada, directed by Adam and Patti Alderson and featuring Brian Westerley and Beth Geiser. PASSING THROUGH by Chris George of Houston TX, directed by Melanie Pepe and Brandi Eaton and featuring Adam Alderson and Eulabill Roberts. BLACK FRIDAY by Jennifer Tromble of North Tonawanda, NY, directed by Ian Haberman and featuring Meg Hopp, Alex Nine, and Rachel Gehlert. RIDE SHARE by Stanley Brown, of West Hollywood, CA, directed by Richard Worswick and featuring Tom Barnes and Amanda Layman. ONE MAN SHOW, by Jason K.
