The Parker Arts Council presents "Dearly Departed"

"Dearly Departed" takes place somewhere below the Mason-Dixon line in backwoods bible-belt country. Redneck family patriarch Bud Turpin keels over dead at breakfast one morning, leaving the family to deal with getting Bud properly laid away (but as inexpensively as possible.) Funerals have never been quite so outlandishly fun as Bud's family and the whole eccentric community gather to celebrate his life. And death.

The cast, under the direction of Susan Rossman, includes Ken R. Paul, Linda Schindler, Dessa Baxman, Doug Tisdale, Loandra Torres, Kathi Baerns, Brainard Starling, Jeffrey Brothers, Patricia Goodman, Brittany Baker, Kristin Morin, Juliette Petersen and Jennie Johnson.

Moonstruck Italian Bistro, just across the Mainstreet Center parking lot, will host after performance specials. Please check details on the Parker Arts website, www.parkerartscouncil.org. Reservations can be made on the website or by calling 303-840-5406.
