Carrollwood Players Theatre Announces FIVE WOMEN WEARING THE SAME DRESS

By: May. 28, 2015

Just in time for wedding season, Carrollwood Players Theatre will present Alan Ball's irreverent comedy, Five Women Wearing The Same Dress, at the Carrollwood Playhouse, 4333 Gunn Highway, Tampa, FL, 33618 from June 5th until June 27th, with performances on Friday and Saturday nights at 8 pm and on Sundays at 3pm.

Tampa's community theatre since 1981, Carrollwood Players offers a regular season of quality live theatre in its intimate 100-seat playhouse, along with alternative theatre selections in its new 60-seat black box performance space.

Five Women Wearing The Same Dress follows five reluctant, identically clad bridesmaids hiding out in a bedroom on the afternoon of their friend's wedding. As the day wears on, these five very different women joyously bond in this wickedly funny and touching celebration of the spirit.

"This play has a lot to say about the struggles a modern woman goes through," said director Marc S. Sanders. The dynamics between the characters are endless and authentic in this show, and that's what makes for exciting theatre."

Five Women Wearing The Same Dress stars Autumn Pandolfo, Paul Jannereth, Mary F. Jordan, Joie Marsh, Jen Martin and Alicia Spiegel. Tickets are $20 for adults and $17 for seniors 62+ and students or military with valid ID and can be purchased online at http://carrollwood-players-theatre.ticketleap.com.
