Dear Foothills Community Players
Friends,
We are excited to present to you our 2015 - 2016 Season:
A Little Murder Never Hurt Anybody by Ron Bernas is
a spoof of and love letter to the screwball comedies of the 1930s and to stage
mysteries in general.
As the show opens,
the Perrys make their traditional New Years resolutions together: Matthew
declares to Julia that he wants something more . . . to be able to travel
abroad, to play golf every day, to spend more time at his club. Thus, he
resolves to kill her by next New Years Eve so he will be free to pursue his
heart’s desires. Julia takes his resolution in stride and resolves to
still be alive a year later. Their games begin and they let no one stand
in their ways as they attempt to keep their resolutions as the year goes
by. To liven things up, we add the Perry’s spoiled, dingy daughter Bunny,
her bright and forgiving boyfriend Donald, Buttram, the Perry’s longtime butler
who harbors a dreadful secret, and Plotnik, a bumbling police detective who
tries to figure out “who-done-it” --- that is if something really has been
done. Who will succeed in his or her resolution --- and who gets caught
in the crossfire? This hilarious comedy has lots of surprises, right up
to the end. Will be presented at the Clayton Center for the Arts, on December 3-6, 2015.
Twelve Angry
Jurors
by Reginald Rose is a drama depicting a jury forced to consider a homicide
trial. Following the closing arguments in a murder trial, the 12 members of the
jury must deliberate, with a guilty verdict meaning death for the accused, an inner-city
teen. As the dozen jurors try to reach a unanimous decision while sequestered
in a room, one juror casts considerable doubt on elements of the case. Personal
issues soon rise to the surface, and conflict threatens to derail the delicate
process that will decide one boy's fate. Will be presented at the Clayton
Center for the Arts, on March 17-20, 2016.
We hope you will join us for our 8th
Season!
