Senior College Players on Stage This Weekend

"The Pie Ladies Make Bail” and other goodies will be on stage Friday, November 18 at 7 pm and Saturday, November 19 at 2 pm at the Gould Academy McLaughlin Auditorium.  Due to popular demand, the Players scheduled their first Matinee this year. 

Ray Leghart, facilitator, said the Players welcomed four newcomers this year. Gail Parent, Hanover, is one of “The Pie Ladies.”  Lainey Cross, Bethel, appears in "The Pie Ladies" but is also featured in one of the comedy plays, “Extra-Curricular Activity.”

The other two newcomers appear together in the play, “The Sweet By and By.”  It features Mary Hickey as Anne, from Rumford, and Lia Paliocha as Mary, from Newry.  Mary has lost a loved one, but through her faith she’s certain they’ll meet again.  Mary’s neighbor, Anne, is more concerned with how Mary managed to bury her husband in her backyard.
