What would you do if someone you loved sat down with you one night and calmly told you that they were going to end their life before morning? This is Thelma Cates' dilemma.

Her daughter, Jessie, has had it. A middle-aged epileptic unable to hold a job, with a failed marriage and a drug-addicted son on the wrong side of the law, Jessie can find no reason to go on living. How can Thelma convince her daughter that life is worth living if she can't feel her pain? How can she end her daughter's embrace of death before morning?

Upcoming: The Complete Works of Shakespeare (abridged), Way Off Broadway Community Players, Leander, May 28 - June 6


Received on May 21 from WOBCP, Leander:

Way Off Broadway Community Players
continues our 12th season with

the manic comedy

The Complete Works of William Shakespeare [abridged]
by Adam Long,
Daniel Singer, and Jess Borgeson, directed by Lynda Davidson.

Performances will run Fridays and Saturdays from May 29th through June 6th at 8 PM. There will be one Sunday performance on May 31st at 3 PM.

NOTE: The May 30th performance will be a free performance at Robin Bledsoe Park on Bagdad Road in Leander. There is no seating at the amphitheater, but they do have a nice lawn. You may bring lawn chairs or blankets, but many folks sit on the ground.

Three guys, one dead playwright, and 37 plays, all in under two hours. A mix of pratfalls, puns, willful misreadings of names and dialogue, clunky female impersonations, clean-cut ribaldry, and broad burlesque. In this universally acclaimed theater experience, three zany guys manage to compress the complete works of Shakespeare into a couple of hours of high-speed over-the-top hilarity.
