SUMMARY:You Can't Take It With You - Lakewood Theatre Co.
DESCRIPTION:Written in 1936\, this light-hearted comedy has relevance for today in addressing the main theme of finding one’s own way in today’s complex society\, while lightly viewing such topics as distrust of government\, domestic terrorism and fear of foreign conflicts. \n“Grandpa” Vanderhof (Robert Lovitz) once worked in the competitive business world. One day\, he realized he was unhappy\, so he stopped working. Since then\, he spends his days catching and raising snakes\, watching graduation ceremonies\, visiting old friends\, and doing whatever else he wants. His daughter Penny (Marilyn Stacey) writes plays simply because a few years ago a typewriter was delivered to the house by accident. His son-in-law Paul Sycamore (Todd Hermanson) spends hours in the basement making illegal fireworks and playing with erector sets. His granddaughter Essie (Bonnie Auguston) sells candy and has been clumsily attempting ballet for over eight years. His grandson-in-law Ed Carmichael (Aiden Brown) plays the xylophone (or tries to) and accidentally distributes Marxist propaganda. \nJoining this free-for-all are Rheba (Caren Graham)\, the household cook; her unemployed boyfriend\, Donald (Shaun Hennessy); Essie’s opinionated Russian ballet instructor\, Mr. Kolenkhov (Mark Schwahn); Olga (Trisha Todd)\, a Russian Grand Duchess; Gay Wellington (Adrienne Southard)\, a heavy-drinking actress; Wilbur C. Henderson (Douglas Hout)\, a forlorn IRS employee; and Mr. De Pinna (Danny Bruno)\, a deliveryman who arrived 8 years ago and decided to stay. He now helps with the fireworks and dresses in Roman togas to pose for Penny’s portraits. All is somewhat calm until three men from the government (Christopher Sparks\, Dan Weiss\, and Erik James) visit to investigate Ed’s flyers. \nIn this crazy mix of characters\, there is also Alice (Taylor Jean Grady)\, Penny and Paul’s other daughter and\, apparently\, the only “normal” family member. She met Tony Kirby (Noah Matthew Rich) at his dad’s Wall Street investment firm\, and they’ve fallen in love. Culture shock and fireworks fly when Mr. Kirby (Jeremy Southard) and Mrs. Kirby (Wendy Martel) come to visit. But the message is clear: “Life’s pretty simple if you just relax\,” as Grandpa puts it. \nYou Can’t Take It With You is directed by Don Alder. Set design is by Chris Whitten\, lighting design is by Demetri Pavlatos\, costume design is by Janelle Sutton\, prop design is by Allen R. Phillips\, the stage manager is Alex Salem\, the assistant stage manager is Nat Weinham\, and the producer is Steve Knox. \nSept. 11 – Oct. 18\, 2026\nWednesdays\, Thursdays\, Fridays\, & Saturdays at 7:30 PM\nSunday Matinees and Saturday matinees on Sept 26 & October 10 at 2:00 PM

His son-in-law Paul Sycamore (Todd Hermanson) spends hours in the basement making illegal fireworks and playing with erector sets. His granddaughter Essie (Bonnie Auguston) sells candy and has been clumsily attempting ballet for over eight years. His grandson-in-law Ed Carmichael (Aiden Brown) plays the xylophone (or tries to) and accidentally distributes Marxist propaganda. \nJoining this free-for-all are Rheba (Caren Graham)\, the household cook; her unemployed boyfriend\, Donald (Shaun Hennessy); Essie’s opinionated Russian ballet instructor\, Mr. Kolenkhov (Mark Schwahn); Olga (Trisha Todd)\, a Russian Grand Duchess; Gay Wellington (Adrienne Southard)\, a heavy-drinking actress; Wilbur C. Henderson (Douglas Hout)\, a forlorn IRS employee; and Mr. De Pinna (Danny Bruno)\, a deliveryman who arrived 8 years ago and decided to stay. He now helps with the fireworks and dresses in Roman togas to pose for Penny’s portraits. All is somewhat calm until three men from the government (Christopher Sparks\, Dan Weiss\, and Erik James) visit to investigate Ed’s flyers. \nIn this crazy mix of characters\, there is also Alice (Taylor Jean Grady)\, Penny and Paul’s other daughter and\, apparently\, the only “normal” family member. She met Tony Kirby (Noah Matthew Rich) at his dad’s Wall Street investment firm\, and they’ve fallen in love. Culture shock and fireworks fly when Mr. Kirby (Jeremy Southard) and Mrs. Kirby (Wendy Martel) come to visit. But the message is clear: “Life’s pretty simple if you just relax\,” as Grandpa puts it. \nYou Can’t Take It With You is directed by Don Alder. Set design is by Chris Whitten\, lighting design is by Demetri Pavlatos\, costume design is by Janelle Sutton\, prop design is by Allen R. Phillips\, the stage manager is Alex Salem\, the assistant stage manager is Nat Weinham\, and the producer is Steve Knox. \nSept. 11 – Oct. 18\, 2026\nWednesdays\, Thursdays\, Fridays\, & Saturdays at 7:30 PM\nSunday Matinees and Saturday matinees on Sept 26 & October 10 at 2:00 PM

SUMMARY:Bridge City Improv:  Cliffbanger!

SUMMARY:You Can't Take It With You - Lakewood Theatre Co.
DESCRIPTION:Written in 1936\, this light-hearted comedy has relevance for today in addressing the main theme of finding one’s own way in today’s complex society\, while lightly viewing such topics as distrust of government\, domestic terrorism and fear of foreign conflicts. \n“Grandpa” Vanderhof (Robert Lovitz) once worked in the competitive business world. One day\, he realized he was unhappy\, so he stopped working. Since then\, he spends his days catching and raising snakes\, watching graduation ceremonies\, visiting old friends\, and doing whatever else he wants. His daughter Penny (Marilyn Stacey) writes plays simply because a few years ago a typewriter was delivered to the house by accident. His son-in-law Paul Sycamore (Todd Hermanson) spends hours in the basement making illegal fireworks and playing with erector sets. His granddaughter Essie (Bonnie Auguston) sells candy and has been clumsily attempting ballet for over eight years.

SUMMARY:Learn to Crochet a Granny Square with The Bridge!
DESCRIPTION:Join us the month of October as we celebrate old school crafts that still pack a punch! We all love a brand new craft\, but some are classics for a reason! And this month we are celebrating some of those during our monthlong celebration of “Grandma Crafts for ALL!” Join us on Sunday\, October 4th as we will be teaching how to make a simple crocheted beginner granny square! No previous experience necessary. We will have yarn\, hooks\, and excitment as we share how fun and versatile this simple little square can be! We list the event as free\, but we do kindly ask for a $5 donation to cover materials. However\, no one will be turned away for lack of funds. Please join us at the starting time of 2pm as we will be beginning the class with instruction and there is not time to repeat everything again! This event is hosted at a church but it is NOT a church event. There will be NO church talk; just a free community-building event that allows us all to take a break in our busy lives to do something that’s good for ourself and our community. We hope you will join us!

Henderson (Douglas Hout)\, a forlorn IRS employee; and Mr. De Pinna (Danny Bruno)\, a deliveryman who arrived 8 years ago and decided to stay. He now helps with the fireworks and dresses in Roman togas to pose for Penny’s portraits. All is somewhat calm until three men from the government (Christopher Sparks\, Dan Weiss\, and Erik James) visit to investigate Ed’s flyers. \nIn this crazy mix of characters\, there is also Alice (Taylor Jean Grady)\, Penny and Paul’s other daughter and\, apparently\, the only “normal” family member. She met Tony Kirby (Noah Matthew Rich) at his dad’s Wall Street investment firm\, and they’ve fallen in love. Culture shock and fireworks fly when Mr. Kirby (Jeremy Southard) and Mrs. Kirby (Wendy Martel) come to visit. But the message is clear: “Life’s pretty simple if you just relax\,” as Grandpa puts it. \nYou Can’t Take It With You is directed by Don Alder. Set design is by Chris Whitten\, lighting design is by Demetri Pavlatos\, costume design is by Janelle Sutton\, prop design is by Allen R. Phillips\, the stage manager is Alex Salem\, the assistant stage manager is Nat Weinham\, and the producer is Steve Knox. \nSept. 11 – Oct. 18\, 2026\nWednesdays\, Thursdays\, Fridays\, & Saturdays at 7:30 PM\nSunday Matinees and Saturday matinees on Sept 26 & October 10 at 2:00 PM
