Directed by Linda Fundis This exciting, new musical version of Charlotte's Web brings a new dimension to E.B. White's beloved classic.

Order your tickets now for this joyous musical brought to you by the children of our Theater Production Class! Tickets are $9 adults, $8 seniors and $7 students/ children. 964-3396.


It’s Riveting, Intense and Our Final Show
of the G. B. Community Theatre Season!
"Twelve Angry Men"
April 11, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19
Thurs., Fri. and Sat. at 8 p.m. Sun. at 3 p.m.
At the local courthouse, 12 men have retired to a room to decide the guilt or innocence of a 19-year-old man accused of fatally stabbing his stepfather after a late night argument. A woman who lives across the way testified she saw the murder take place. An old man who lives downstairs claims to have seen the boy fleeing the scene of the crime.
It looks like an open-and-shut case--until a lone juror #8 becomes the sole holdout in an 11-1 guilty vote. “Eight” isn’t sure that he is convinced beyond a reasonable doubt. He wants to talk. And he becomes the riveting voice who forces the group to question both the evidence and themselves.
On the hottest day of the year,testimonies are re-examined and the murder is re-enacted. The temperature rises, tempers flare, alliances are drawn and angry words fly as a man's life hangs in the balance.
Reginald Rose’s great American drama was originally written as a teleplay and adapted for the stage by Sherman Sergel. It holds at its core a deeply patriotic belief in the U.S. legal system. Rose deliberately and carefully peels away the layers of artifice from the men and allows a fuller picture of America to form--America at its best and worst.
Directed by Steve Rhodes, the G.B. Community Theatre production will be held on April 11, 12, 13, 17, 18 and 19. Thursday, Friday and Saturday shows begin at 8 p.m. The Sunday matinee begins at 3 p.m. For reservations call 964-3396. Tickets are $10 adults, $9 seniors and $8 students/children. Don’t miss this exciting and intense courtroom drama
