 Patrons will endure long commutes to see a quality show. The Women at Theatre Southwest is no exception. Yes, this is definitely a vehicle for ladies. And what is a "catfight coordinator"?
The Women shows the values and thinking about women's roles at that time; but challenges them at the same time. On the other hand, it shows a rich and varied view of all types of women, intelligent, catty, gentle, vicious, etc. They are not necessarily defined by the men in their lives - who are not shown. It actually shows the women ultimately deciding how their men will live - and with whom. Performances run until March 13. Go to Theatre Southwest website for more information. |

 The haunting familiarity of the past permeates the present with the arrival of Melissa Wilson, a coed, boarding at the home of Glorie and Elmer Whitman. What Glorie envisions to be a joyful endeavor becomes an unexpected struggle to face the darkness of hate.

Internationally produced and currently recognized as the three most widely produced comedic playwrights in America - Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten - are coming to the Crighton for a visit. STAGE RIGHT audiences may recall that our highly popular productions of CHRISTMAS BELLES and SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY presented last season were written by Jones, Hope and Wooten. Additionally, DEARLY BELOVED, which will be presented in April of this year, is also a Jones, Hope & Wooten play and is actually the first part of the hilarious trilogy of the Futrelle sisters of Fayro, Texas.
