Davis' MASS APPEAL Opens At South Camden Theater Co 2/6

The South Camden Theatre Company, Inc. a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization located in Camden, New Jersey will perform "Mass Appeal" written by Bill C. Davis beginning February 6 through Sunday February 22, 2009. Mr. Davis will also visit South Camden Theatre Company for a special meet and greet session following the opening night performance on Friday, February 6, 2009.

Director for the show and Producing Artistic Director of South Camden Theatre Company Joseph M. Paprzycki states, "Mass Appeal" is a classic dramatic-comedy of two priests that clash over the traditional and modern Catholic ideology; touching on the ongoing dialogue between both clergy and parishioners which shows how we can lose ourselves and what is essential in our humanity, and how we can find redemption in letting go of our fears. I am honored to have the opportunity for our audience to speak directly with Bill C. Davis and gain insight into a new version of his classic play".

Author Bill C. Davis states, "I'm looking forward to hearing these subtle revisions in my play with the good people of Camden".

Performances will be held on Friday and Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 1:30pm at the South Camden Theatre Company's stage currently located in the basement theater of the Sacred Heart Church in Camden, New Jersey.
