Towne Street Theatre to Present JACKLEG, 8/10-9/8
By: Kristin Salaky
Towne Street Theatre continues its 20th Anniversary Season with the World Premiere of "JACKLEG," a new comedy by Harriet A. Dickey. In addition to the previously announced performance schedule of Saturdays and Sundays, new dates have been added on Fridays - August 16, 23, 30 and September 6. "JACKLEG" opens on Saturday, August 10, 2013 and continues through Sunday, September 8, 2013. Show times are Fridays & Saturdays at 8:00 PM and Sundays at 4:00 PM. Performances are at the Stella Adler Theatre, 6773 Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles, CA 90028. The theatre is close to the Metro@ Hollywood & Highland, with a validated parking lot in the 1700 block of McCadden ( ½ block east of the theatre ).
In "JACKLEG" we discover that sometimes bad preachers happen to good people. The congregation at Blessed Hope Missionary Baptist Church has hired a new pastor, but in this case the Devil is not just in the details, but in the preacher himself. There's an "unholy war" going on at this church, and the backroom politics make congress look like a bunch of amateurs. While the Board digs up dirt on their new pastor, the good reverend makes a little dirt of his own to hang on to his position.
