Fallen Angels
By Sir Noël Coward
June 7-23, 2019
Before Julia and Jane married their husbands Fred and Willy - there was Maurice, a former French lover. While the women's blissfully ignorant husbands are away on a golf trip, he shows up and reminds them of what they might be missing. Following an evening of drunkenness and fevered anticipation, Julia and Jane become concerned that indiscretions from their past will be revealed, and comedic antics ensue. FALLEN ANGELS is a sparkling, hilarious comedy about rivalry and manners, resulting in a champagne cocktail of wit and charm.

The "ladies" of Umatilla Second Christian Church Women's Auxiliary League are back and producing their annual Mother's Day pageant. As the "church girls" prepare for their pageant, chaos and calamity bring out less than 'saintly' behavior. The result is Heaven sent hilarity! Making its farewell performance, CHURCH GIRLS: THE MUSICAL is a campy, cheeky, audacious musical comedy that will hit your funny bone and keep you laughing.
