The Cherry Orchard - last two nights

The Yellow Springs Players will present the last two performances of Anton Chekhov's play "The Cherry Orchard" Firday and Saturday nights. This abridged production of the classic play will be performed on April 15th and 16th at 8:00 p.m. in Westminster Hall at the first Presbyterian Church. Come early and catch some music by the Dayton Mandolin Orchestra. Box office proceeds will be used to help create a performance arts space in the hall, in particular, raising funds to install sound baffles on the ceiling and walls to improve the acoustic quality of the space. Support the effort to bring back community theater to Yellow Springs.

Produced by Kay Reimers; directed by Marcia Nowik. I have been hearing rave reviews from local theater people and had a chance to see part of this very professional production in dress rehearsal. I plan to be there Friday night.

Ticket prices are $10 with additional donations welcomed.

Proceeds benefit the same effort to improve sound in Westminster Hall. DMO is grateful to the church for providing rehearsal space to us.
