The Penny Seats third annual summer show at Ann Arbor's West Park opens on July 11th. This year, the troupe is proud to present Little Me, the farcical autobiography of Belle Poitrine, supposed star of stage, screen, and sinking ship. From her humble origins as Belle Schlumpfert on Drifter's Row, to her meteoric rise to wealth, culture, and social position, to her many mates and her one true love, all are here. Neil Simon's script is a scream (yes, Neil Simon wrote a musical!), and the music by Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh sparkles. Better still, Penny Seat Roy Sexton will attempt a comic tour de force originated by Sid Caesar and designed just for this show: he will play no fewer than six characters. Check out a first look at the cast below!

For the first time ever, the group's catering partner, A La Rouge, will prepare fresh, grilled picnic fare for sale at the park. (Think hamburgers, hot dogs, veggie burgers, grilled chicken, and lots of delicious sides.) No need to pre-order; just come on down. Picnicking starts at 5:30 p.m., and the show begins at 7:00 p.M. Sharp. We can't wait to see you. Tickets are $10 and are available now at www.pennyseats.org.
