ALIDA - Act One Productions held a casting meeting on Dec. 6, in which they were able to select five actors for the March 2023 production.
The play that was chosen was I Take this Man, a screwball farce by Jack Sharky. The five performers are Shanna Carriere, Tim Cowan, Wes and Rachelle Smith, and Sheldon Kyle. Good luck, actors. Have fun and we’ll see you in March.
On Dec. 10, the tickets went on sale. There was a fairly good turnout. Half of the seats for the Saturday dinner theater were sold and about half of the seats for the Friday cocktail theatre were gobbled up.
Tickets are now available at the Alida Post Office during their business hours. Either come pick up your tickets whenever you are in town or you can phone Linda at 306-577-3155 to reserve your tickets and pick them up when in town.
Or she may even let you reserve, pay for your tickets, then pick up at the door the day of the production night you selected. Have any questions? She will try her best to answer them. Drama week is on March 9-11, and a Sunday matinee will be March 12.
Also keep a watch out for posters, Facebook postings, etc. Just ask around, someone will be able to direct you. Remember this production is being presented in recognition of Lynette Peet, who was very much involved with the club.
Looking for a unique Christmas gift? Alida has the answer. We have our history books, Reflections of Reciprocity Volumes 1 and 2, which are a set, and volume 3 available and can also be picked up at the post office, as well as the new drama tickets.
