The Not So Grand Players are busy rehearsing for the musical comedy, Show Me the Money, which is set to take the stage at the Fergus Grand Theatre Dec. 5 to 8.
The play takes place in a retirement home where residents are trying to cope with water damage resulting from an accidental fire alarm. In order to qualify for a donation to repair the water damage, the residents participate in an evening of improv.
Like several other scripts, this production is written by members of the production. Show Me the Money was written by Connie Dickinson and Florence Arkell, who created characters that would showcase the talents of their fellow community-minded theatrical group.
Directed by Arkell with music direction by Terry Wilson, the music will be provided by Gerald Wilson and Karen Aitken.
There are 24 cast members and approximately 16 musical numbers, including solos, duets and group numbers.
Show Me the Money will be at Fergus Grand Theatre Dec. 5 to 8 with shows at 8pm.
Tickets are $12 and available through the Fergus Grand Theatre at 519-787-1981 or on line at www.fergusgrandtheatre.ca.
As with every Not So Grand production, all profits will be donated back into the community.
Audiences are encouraged to bring nonperishable food donations for the Centre Wellington Food Bank.
