Two One-Act Plays in a Single Night on Lewis Lane

On May 29 and 30, the Havre de Grace Drama Guild’s Teen Troupe and the Lewis Lane Players will be coming together for the first time to bring you two classic one act plays in a single night!

First, the Teen Troupe will bring you Mixed Relief, New Shoe Productions’ play that traces the lives of several female 20th century writers in their own words and discusses the role that government programs have played in benefiting the arts, including the New Deal era Federal Writers’ Project and Federal Theatre Project and the modern National Endowment for the Arts.

After a brief intermission, the Lewis Lane Players will present Susan Glaspell’s early 20th century murder mystery, Trifles. In 1916, the concerns of women were considered to be mere trifles in a society run by men. When a murder occurs, the male investigators think they have things well in hand, but it is their wives who may have true insight into the crime.

Shows are on Friday, May 29 at 7:00 pm and Saturday, May 30 at 1:00 and 5:30. All performances will be held at the Lewis Lane Players’ home theater, Theater 351 inside the Havre de Grace Activity Center, 351 Lewis Lane, across from the middle school. Doors open 30 minutes before showtime.

Tickets are $10 for adults or $8 for seniors (ages 55 and up) and children (0-12). You can reserve your tickets in advance online at http://hdgdramatroop.com/tickets.html or buy them in person inside the Parks and Recreation office of the Havre de Grace Activity Center during normal business hours.

Come on out and enjoy the shows!
