A Bad Year for Tomatoes

By John Patrick
Directed By Vicki Frankland and Alan Jones
January 27, 28 and February 2 - 5 2006

Dr. John Carter and Compass Medical Supply present this zany production of, A Bad Year for Tomatoes.

Storyline ~A Bad Year for Tomatoes

Fed up with the pressures and demands of her acting career, the famous TV actress, Myra Marlowe, leases a house in tiny Beaver Haven to write her autobiography. She is successful in turning aside the offers pressed on her by her long-time agent, but dealing with her nosy neighbors is a different matter. In an attempt to shoo them away, and gain some privacy, Myra invents a mad, homicidal sister - who is kept locked in an upstairs room, but who occasionally escapes to scare away uninvited visitors. Complications result when the local handyman develops an affection for "Sister Sadie" (really Myra in a fright wig).

NOTE: We are currently seeking a hair stylist to assist our actresses before performances. If you would like to volunteer please call Lisa Martin (903-982-5778) or Vicki Frankland (903-737-0906).

A student matinee will be performed January 29th. This is not open to the public but for students and their teachers. A Q&A session will follow the performance with the actors, directors and technical staff present. We are very pleased to be able to provide this opportunity to area educators.
