THE FACTS OF LIFE's Mindy Cohn to Lead JCT's BELL, BOOK AND CANDLE

Morgan Sills, Executive Producer and Daniel Haley, Artistic Director at Judson Theatre Company, have announced that the final show for the 2013 season will be John Van Druten's magical romantic comedy, Bell, Book and Candle. The production will run from Thursday, Nov. 7 through Sunday, Nov. 10 at Owens Auditorium at Sandhills Community College, located at 3395 Airport Road in Pinehurst.

Emmy Award-nominated Mindy Cohn of The Facts of Life, also the voice of Velma in the Scooby Doo franchise, stars in the production. Bell, Book and Candle tells the story of Gillian, a gorgeous "good" witch living in New York City in the 1950s, practicing magic with her Aunt Queenie (Cohn) and brother Nicky. Smitten with her handsome neighbor that lives upstairs, Gillian casts a spell and he's immediately captivated; will she be undone by her own mischief or will true love transpire?

"We are excited to bring Mindy Cohn to the Sandhills region of North Carolina for Bell, Book and Candle," said Sills. "Mindy is a very talented actor with just the right magical charm for the show. Judson Theatre Company prides itself on enhancing the local cultural scene with high-quality productions with acclaimed stars from film, television and Broadway. We hope our patrons will enjoy this new production of a Broadway comedy classic."
