Regular meetings of the Mystery Theater are back on schedule. The first Tuesday of every month in the Main Clubhouse Ballroom, stage side. Meetings begin at 1 pm and everyone is invited to check us out. We are busy planning our upcoming production of That's Entertainment, to be presented in spring of 2017. We are seeking talent and enthusiasm of all kinds. If you've ever thought of performing or helping a performance team, please visit our next meeting. Whether you juggle, wiggle or twinkle, we want to meet your talent. Play the concertina, guitar, harmonica, sax or sing? Whatever your interest, share it with us. We also need "team players" who are willing to learn the backstage idiosyncrasies of sets, sound, lights, etc. If you are willing to learn, there will be someone to teach. The show, Walk Down Memory Lane from World War II to Disco, promises to be great fun for both the performers and the audience who will be given a unique experience seated in a true "cabaret" setting. For more information, please call Barbara Searcy at 663-3382 or Bill Shova at 845-0547. | SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | OCTOBER 2016 | 23 Mystery Theater & More We are having a wonderful time rehearsing Steel Magnolias!
