Black Hawk East Community Players fall production - Nov. 6 - Nov. 8
The Black Hawk East Community Players will present their fall production of “The Outrageous Adventures of SHELDON & MRS. LEVINE”, a comedy by Broadway playwright Sam Bobrick (“Murder at the Howard Johnson’s” and “Death in England) and Julie Stein, for one weekend only.
“The Outrageous Adventures of SHELDON & MRS. LEVINE” is a hilarious comedy about the all-consuming, love-hate relationship between an overbearing mother and her adult son. Travel the globe and share in the angst, aggravation, madness and mail of a mother and son, who although thousands of miles apart, are still too close to each other for their own good. Directed by Dan Breedlove of Kewanee, the cast features Kate Barton and Pat Kelley of Kewanee. Tickets are available for purchase at the Black Hawk College - East Campus library, Brandy’s Hallmark, and Heartfelt Gifts in Kewanee. For advance ticket reservations, call (309) 853-5306.
