The show WILL go on! Charley's Aunt moves to The Erie Station Dinner Theatre for 5 Performances! May 17- May 25
As I'm sure most of you heard on the news, All An Act Theatre fell victim to a fire on April 27th. Fortunately, no one was hurt, and Community Shelter Services can continue operations. The damage to the theatre is severe and we won't be able to hold performances for several months. However, our good friends at The Station Dinner Theatre have offered to let us use their theatre to continue the run of Charley's Aunt. We are so grateful for their generosity. Dates and times are below. We hope you will all come out to support us as we wade through these muddy waters.

Living with the happy couple is the not so happy Abe Dreyfus, Jerry's curmudgeon of a father in law. Abe is a funny guy to the audience, not to Jerry. The situation is exacerbated when Jerry's mother Mildred looses her house in a fire and needs a place to stay. Abe and Mildred can't stand each other. This play is one hilarious confrontation after another until the heart- warming finale in which the oldsters discover that, really, each is not so bad.
