the performances of Hair have been fabulous.
we got a really good review in the paper.
he said the 3 leads (Evan Rail, Karen Wills & myself)
"...are solidly throbbing and intense,
with strong vocalizations throughout."

the audience response has been amazing!
the shows have elicited strong ovations, laughter, clapping along
and tears of joy and heartache as the show chronicles
the tumultuous and liberation period of the late 60s.
many have already purchased tickets to see the show again.
we even won over 2 stodgy corporate houses!
so come see what the fuss is about.

I particularly want to pump the
late shows next friday and saturday.
they cancelled the late shows this weekend
because not enough advance tickets were sold.
that was a huge disappointment to the cast
which has been eagerly anticipating these shows.
so PLEASE call the box office and reserve your
tix for those shows in advance so they aren't cancelled.
Lincoln Community Playhouse (56th & Normal)

all times are 7:30 - EXCEPT the 5th is at 7PM
and the 10th and 11th ALSO have a 10PM show.

Remember, the playhouse has never turned down
a paying patron. so even if the show you want to
see is sold out, just show up 30 mins before the
show is to begin and get on the waiting list.
we haven't had to turn anyone away!

Your Quick Inspiration For The Day: Do It Anyways
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't
do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe
harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
