Benzie County Players announce their first show of the season, Boeing Boeing, a 1960s French slapstick comedy that has been adapted for the English-speaking stage and was written by Marc Camoletti, and translated by Beverley Cross, and Francis Evans. Performances will be held at the Mills Community House in Benzonia. Each performance has been dedicated by a local Presenting Sponsor: Friday, January 24, at 7pm is opening night, sponsored by Roadhouse Bar & Grill; Saturday, January 25, at 7pm by Rocks Landing; a matinee on Sunday, January 26, at 2pm by L'Chayim; closing night on January 27, at 7pm by Betsie Bay Furniture.
Boeing Boeing features self-styled Parisian lothario Bernard, who has Italian, German, and American fiancées, each a beautiful airline hostess with frequent “layovers.” Unexpected schedule changes bring all three to Paris -- and to Bernard’s apartment -- all at the same time, along with a coinciding visit from a long-time American friend. This season’s play from the Benzie County Players is casted with (Director) Rachel Evans-Higgins, Cory Bissell, Toby Gould, Maria Wolowiec, Randi Stoltz-Flynn, and Katie Dorsey.
The Benzie County Players is a 40-year-old community theatre group, founded in 1980 when Woody Henry started it all. She produced and directed Love Rides the Rails in the fall of 1979 and See How They Run in May 1980 to benefit Paul Oliver Memorial Hospital. The amateur performers were so pleased with their success that they decided to form an organization which would be dedicated to play production and open to all people interested in any aspect of the theatre. The Players are currently fundraising to cover the production costs of three shows annually, while also working toward scholarship funding for local students, the ability to donate show proceeds to local charities, and hosting theatre workshops.
Join the Benzie County Players for their first show of the 2020 season. Tickets will be available at the door: $12 for adults and $6 for students. To reserve tickets, to ask any questions, or to join the Players, call 231.409.6686.
