Sex Please We’re Sixty by the Bowie Community Theatre at the Bowie Playhouse, July 11-26

Sex Please We’re Sixty
by Michael Parker and Susan Parker

Location: Bowie Community Theatre at the Bowie Playhouse

Performances: July 11 to 26, 2014.

Description: Mrs. Stancliffe’s Rose Cottage Bed & Breakfast has been successful for many years. Her guests (nearly all women) return year after year. Her next door neighbor, the elderly, silver-tongued, “Bud the Stud” Davis believes they come to spend time with him in romantic liaisons, and Mrs. Stancliffe reluctantly accepts the fact that “Bud the Stud” is, in fact, good for business. Add to the guest list three older women, and a retired chemist who has developed a blue pill called “Venusia,” after Venus the goddess of love, to increase the libido of menopausal women. The pill has not been tested. When Bud gets his hands on some of the Venusia pills, the fun begins, as he attempts to entertain all three women! “If you need a rollicking good time filled with laughter, this is a must-see play.” – The City Wire, Fort Smith, Arkansas.

Children of Eden is the story of the creation as told through the eyes of our narrators, The Storytellers. It tells of Adam and Eve and their relationship with Father (God) and their ultimate expulsion from the Garden of Eden. The story continues through the births of Cain and Abel and that historic battle. The second act takes place generations later with Noah and his family, and their challenges in building the Ark and obeying Father’s will.

The music and lyrics are written by Stephen Schwartz. Famed composer/lyricist of Godspell, Pippin, Wicked, Working, and Rags.
Book by John Caird
Based on a concept by Charles Lisanby

The Fox on the Fairway by Prince George’s Little Theatre at the Bowie Playhouse, May 2-18

The Fox on the Fairway by Prince George’s Little Theatre at the Bowie Playhouse, May 2-18

By Ken Ludwig
Directed by John Degnan

Prince George’s Little Theatre at the Bowie Playhouse

May 2 to 18, 2014

Tickets: $20 Adults, $15 Seniors/18 & Under.

Description: A tribute to the great English farces, this hilarious romp takes audiences on a ride which pulls the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club. Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors, and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it’s a furiously-paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers’ classics. A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life and man’s eternal love affair with … golf.
