Our April Show is our fundraising show each season. Taking a playful nudge at the community theatre tradition of casting whoever you have (the show MUST go on!) we have taken a public domain show, and adopted a “anything goes” approach for the casting for the roles. This gives our actors an opportunity to play roles they never would have an opportunity to tackle otherwise.
In 2025, we are excited to present you with:
Hay Fever
By: Noel Coward
Directed by Andre Eaton Jr.* and Becca Parker*
Show dates: April 24-26, 2025
Location: Pleasant Hill Presbyterian Church
3700 Pleasant Hill Rd
Duluth, GA 30096
Hoping for a quiet weekend in the country with some guests, David Bliss, a novelist, and his wife, Judith, a retired actress, find quiet an impossible dream when their high-spirited children, Simon and Sorel, appear with guests of their own. A houseful of drama waits to be ignited as misunderstandings and tempers flare. With Judith’s new flame and David’s newest literary “inspiration” keeping company as the children follow suit, the Bliss family lives up to its name as the “quiet weekend” comes to an exhausting and hilarious finale worthy of Feydeau.
Recommended for audiences Ages 13+ due to mild adult language, mild adult content, and moderate violence.
