  • 06-08-23 All day

    Performances: June 8-10 and 15-17 at 8 p.m.

    Presented by: Clarion Community Theater
    By: David McGillivray and Walter Zerlin Jr.

    Tickets: $15.00

    Every theater group has experienced the horrors of what can go wrong on opening night and the ladies of the FAHETG Dramatic Society are no different, with the possible exception that everything that could happen does.

    The scenery collapses, cues are missed, lines forgotten, and the sound effects take on a strange note sometimes as the ladies present their ambitious evening’s entertainment with the cunning whodunit, “Murder at Checkmate Manor.”

    And just in case the audience should get bored, there’s a Film and Fashion Show and Murder Mystery Quiz complete with prize!

    The crunch comes in the denouement when the “murderer,” about to be revealed, has to rush home to bandage up and injured daughter.

    But Mrs. Reese, doyenne of the group, rises above the slings and arrows of outrageous dramatics to save the situation and provide the final and inventive twist.

    Suitable for all ages.

    Verna Leith Sawmill Theatre at 170 Sawmill Lane, Cooksburg, PA 16217

    Performances: July 6 -8, 2023 at 8 p.m.

    Presented by: Punxsutawney Theatre Arts Guild
    Written By: Tom Smith

    Tickets: $15.00

    Accusations, mistaken identities, and romances run wild in this traditional, laugh-out-loud farce. Two nuns at the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing have been secretly making wine to keep the convent's doors open, but Paul and Sally, reporters and former fiancées, are hot on their trail. They go undercover as a nun and priest, but their presence, combined with the addition of a new nun, spurs paranoia throughout the convent that spies have been sent from Rome to shut them down. Wine and secrets are inevitably spilled as everyone tries to preserve the convent and reconnect with lost loves.
