Inherit the Wind
directed by Eric Van Druff
Fall 2013
Annie is a Broadway musical based upon the popular Harold Gray comic strip Little Orphan Annie, with music by Charles Strouse, lyrics by Martin Charnin, and the book by Thomas Meehan. The original Broadway production opened in 1977 and ran for nearly six years, setting a record for the Alvin Theatre (now the Neil Simon Theatre).[1] It spawned numerous productions in many countries, as well as national tours, and won the Tony Award for Best Musical. The musical's songs "Tomorrow" and "It's the Hard-Knock Life" are among its most popular musical numbers.
Inherit The Wind opens just after dawn on a July day that "promises to be a scorcher." The story centers around a schoolteacher who is on trial for teaching evolution—the theory that man evolved from lower primates such as monkeys—in his classroom, a violation of Tennessee's Butler Law. The lines are already drawn in this sleepy Southern town of Hillsboro, Tennessee. Creationism or evolution? Religion or science?
The scene is a fishing lodge in rural Georgia often visited by "Froggy" LeSeuer, a British demolition expert who occasionally runs training sessions at a nearby army base. This time "Froggy" has brought along a friend, a pathologically shy young man named Charlie who is overcome with fear at the thought of making conversation with strangers. So "Froggy," before departing, tells all assembled that Charlie is from an exotic foreign country and speaks no English. Once alone the fun really begins, as Charlie overhears more than he should—the evil plans of a sinister, two-faced minister and his redneck associate; the fact that the minister's pretty fiancée is pregnant; and many other damaging revelations made with the thought that Charlie doesn't understand a word being said. That he does fuels the nonstop hilarity of the play and sets up the wildly funny climax in which things go uproariously awry for the "bad guys," and the "good guys" emerge triumphant.
OCT presents an evening of short plays celebrating women's relationships that we're calling Ladies Shorts.
This special summer bonus show will run at 7:30p on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights August 22, 23, and 24.
PLEASE NOTE: there will be no Sunday performance due to the venue: Mickey's Restaurant on East State Street in Olean. Sunday tickets will be honored for the performance of your choice!
This intimate and special setting will include a cash bar for each performance. In addition, the Saturday performance will feature a special pre-show pasta dinner available for purchase.
Please mark the dates and the place as they are NOT printed on your tickets. We look forward to having you in the audience for this unique evening in a very different setting!
