THE LAST POTLUCK SUPPER Opens Tonight at Derby Dinner Playhouse

By:

Derby Dinner Playhouse will present the ALL NEW musical comedy THE LAST POTLUCK SUPPER, opening August 12 and running through September 27, 2015. For ticket information please call 812-288-8281 or visit www.derbydinner.com

They're cookin' again! It's 1979 and past parishioners have gathered to share hotdish, bars, and stories from the last 100 years. As the women work in the kitchen, these shared memories burst into life through a series of flashbacks. Travel back to 1897 and meet Vivian's grandmother, one of the founding members of the church. See Karin as a newlywed, cautiously navigating her way through the politics of the kitchen. And be there on that day in 1944 when Mavis first barreled her way through the swinging door. As they time-jump through the Century, these ladies manage to serve up a rib-tickling panorama of the changes in the kitchen over the years.

THE LAST POTLUCK SUPPER was inspired by the books of Janet Martin and Suzann Nelson, including the best seller "Growing Up Lutheran". The musical was written by Greta Grosch with Music and Lyrics by Drew Jansen. Songs featured are "You Can Learn A lot About a Lady", "Use It or Ya Lose It", "An Old Wooden Spoon", and more.

THE LAST POTLUCK SUPPER is under the direction of Bekki Jo Schneider with choreography by Barbara F. Cullen and musical direction by Scott Bradley. The cast will include Cary Wiger, Rita Thomas, Colette Delaney, Tina Jo Wallace, and Katelyn Webb.

Join the Church Basement Ladies and their Pastor as they cook up an evening of music and laughter!
