Don't miss your chance to audition!! This Sunday at 7 pm.

Al and Willie as "Lewis and Clark" were top-billed vaudevillians for over forty years. Now they aren't even speaking. When CBS requests them for a "History of Comedy" retrospective, a grudging reunion brings the two back together, along with a flood of memories, miseries, and laughs.

Twenty years after burying a time capsule, four women reunite to open it, only to be
confronted with the secret that splintered their friendship. Memories clash and long-ridden guilt resurfaces as they navigate how the past is now dictating their present.

Curtain Players is proud to share After Marlow by Ashley Clements with you, our community. Catch this original script on Sunday, May 31st.

Curtain Players is proud to present a staged reading of Milliard Fillmore was the 13th President by Dallas Ray-Macke as a part of our Simply Staged series.

Awakened by Riley's post-work embarrassment about a two-dollar bill, Jamie is drawn into a comically frustrating guessing game as Riley insists on identifying the person on the currency without looking it up. Their misinformed historical debate eventually reveals the answer.

Joe Moore is the Columbus (Franklinton) author of The Seer. This is his first play. He is the author of 2 children’s picture books: Maxwell, the Raindrop Who Wouldn’t Fall and Maxwell the Raindrop: Am I Still Me?

He is the father of Maddie and Marissa Moore, both also living in Columbus. Maddie has performed in many local plays and musicals, which inspired Joe to try playwriting.

The Seer was originally conceived as a Twilight Zone-style story. He imagined it as a TV episode. Joe is eager to see how the story translates to the stage.

Joe’s hobbies include spending time with his kids, collecting records and listening to music, reading, riding his bicycle around the city, and hanging out with his dog, Reno.

You can experience The Seer at Curtain Players on Friday, 29 May at 8 pm. Get your tickets now! https://bit.ly/49Q2ieL
