The St. Jacobs Country Playhouse continues its 2012 season with Norm Foster’s Bedtime Stories.
There is a lot happening between the sheets in the intricately balanced story about the lives, loves, and challenges faced by 15 everyday people including a former radio announcer, a shy middle-aged couple, a rock star who’s not getting any younger, a hopelessly inept dancer, a man who meets with his high school crush, and a pair of bungling thieves.
They are all searching for love and understanding in their divergent life journeys in the innovative look at six funny – and very different – bedroom scenes.
Artistic director of Drayton Entertainment Alex Mustakas said, “This sharply written production is really six comedies in one. Audiences will enjoy seeing how these seemingly different stories ultimately converge to tell a universal tale of life and love.”
Chris McHarge is the director. McHarge has directed over 60 productions including the world premiere of Foster’s musical Sitting Pretty.
The creative team includes set and lighting designer Stephen Degenstein, and costume designer Nicole Del Cul.
The cast is comprised of Brad Austin, Terry Barna, Karen Coughlin, Alison Lawrence, and Ralph Small. Each performer tackles multiple roles.
Bedtime Stories has a three-week engagement at the St. Jacobs Country Playhouse, June 13 through 30.
