LOWER LAKE — Lake County Theatre Company (LCTC) is ready to roll out the red carpet for its Lake County fans with the up-coming comedy, “Southern Hospitality,” written by the team of Jesse Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten. Their hilarious show will take place in September in Weaver Auditorium at the Lower Lake Historic Schoolhouse Museum. What we all need during an economic downturn is an entertainment upturn, and LCTC has got it.
This crazy play is set in Fayro, Texas and it offers up the four Futrelle sisters, three of whom are looking for love in all the wrong places. Then there is an innocent young couple who lose their innocence to a casino, a sheriff”s deputy whose biggest recent crime spree involves “illegal dumpster diving,” a gun-toting lady general from “the Battle of Vicksburg” and a henpecked husband who is trying to recapture his youth while avoiding his wife”s wrath and an 80-year-old maiden aunt with a really bad attitude.
What else is LCTC doing to stimulate fun in this economy? Why, trimming the prices, of course. All tickets will be only $10. Reserved tickets may be purchased at Catfish Books in Lakeport (263-4454) while general seating is available at the Lower Lake Historic Schoolhouse Museum and Wild about Books in Clearlake (994-9433).
The “funniest show in years” will take place at 7 p.m. Sept. 11, 12, 18 and 19 and 2 p.m. Sept. 13 and 20. There will only be 80 seats available for each show, so get your tickets early and get ready to laugh. More information is available at 279-2595.
