B Street Theatre Presents OLD LOVE, 7/31-9/12

B Street Theatre (2711 B Street) presents OLD LOVE from July 31st to September 12th, with opening night on August 1st. The play was written by Canadian playwright Norm Foster, is directed by Buck Busfield, and features Judy Jean Berns and David Silberman. Tickets are $15 during previews and between $18 and $30 for normal performances with a $5 student rush ticket.

When a grieving widow is approached by an Old Acquaintance to pay his respects, a strained courtship begins that poses the question: is love worth all the bother? OLD LOVE is a delightfully funny tale of romance, marriage, and friendship between older adults. There are two acts. This is the second show of B Street's 2010-2011 Mainstage Series. Showtimes are 6:30 PM on Tuesdays, 2 and 6:30 PM on Wednesdays, 8 PM on Thursday and Fridays, 5 and 9 PM on Saturdays and 2 PM on Sundays.
