Theatre Arts 16 | OHCC LIVING | AUGUST 2020 | Sadly, the Clubhouse is still closed and we have no room assignments. Members will be informed of any programming by email as events come up. Until this is all over, all in-person performances are on hold. Let this be a reminder that the Theatre Arts Club stands shoulder-to-shoulder (and six feet apart) with the staff and residents in keeping each other healthy. Because the Clubhouse is closed, Actors' Workshop and Readers' Theater has ceased gathering in public, but is open for new members. For information, please contact Sally Benton by phone at (602) 228- 7541) or email moki2@cox.net. MEMBERS ONLY! Auditions for our next Zoom performance were held in July and rehearsals are in full swing for Couples, a comedy written by NYC playwright, Sean Grennan, and directed by Patricia Moran Collins. This play centers around a therapist who leads three couples in an online group therapy. Dr. Mercer tries her best to ensure that the rules of etiquette are followed, but her six clients have other ideas. There's Nevin and Barbara, who seem to be having a mid-life crisis. There's Sally and Faith, who can't seem to share the workload. And what's happening with Cynthia and Thomas? Why is Thomas always late to these sessions? Tune in and find out! The one-hour show will be performed live from the actors' homes and available to the audience via Zoom. The show is performed for free, as our way of brightening these troubled times. Only members who request a "ticket" will be sent the Zoom link, which is another reason to become a member of Theatre Arts for only $10. We are all looking forward to the performance Aug. 5. Look for details in your tube for more information. Details for the above and any others referenced here will be sent to members via email, so please keep eyes and ears open. Our next board meeting is tentatively scheduled for July 16, at noon. If a room becomes available, it will be published. Otherwise, it will be held via Zoom. General meetings are usually held the first Monday at 7 pm in Abravanel Hall. Please check your email for exact location, date and time. Only members will be informed of upcoming live events. See how much bang you get for your $10 annual dues. Join Theatre Arts so you can participate in all of our entertainment and activities. Leave your $10 check in our envelope at the front desk when the Clubhouse reopens.
