Playscripts
Workshop runs July 7th through July 20th
Shows are 7pm on July 18th and 19th
and 2:30PM July 20th

A group of villains—including the Evil Queen, Wicked Stepmother, and the Big Bad Wolf—and some familiar faces with dubious morals— like Little Red Riding Hood and Pinocchio—are locked in a mansion on a dark and stormy night. Their only means of escape is helping Prince Charming figure out the name of a mischievous imp who has his eyes set on a gasp-inducing treasure. As they begin to unravel the mystery before the midnight deadline, the storm knocks out the power in the mansion, and in a twist, some of the guests get knocked out, too. Will anyone be left to crack the riddle of the imp’s name and escape? Or will a parade of surprise guests only make matters worse as even more beloved characters become victims to the unknown assailant? With three endings to choose from, the mystery is yours to solve!

Season 71 Fundraiser
The Wizard of Oz in the Wild West
Directed by Robert Wise
Shows run September 5th through 14th
Written by Willard Simms
The immortal characters from The Wizard of Oz live again in this delightful fantasy. A spell cast by the wicked witch sends Dorothy, the Cowardly Lion, the Scarecrow, and the Tin Man back through time and into the western frontier of the 1880’s. There they meet Wild Bill Hickock, Buffalo Bill, Annie Oakley, and Billie the Kid who engages in a shootout with the Tin Man. Dorothy and her friends share with the Old West some of the immortal qualities they acquired in Oz; such lessons as courage, intelligence, and heart! The play ends with Dorothy finally returning to Kansas while her three friends remain in a frontier community where they have each gained positions of respect because of their ’very special’ assets. The audience is encouraged by older actors to help the characters through all their dilemmas by ’wishing’ on Dorothy’s slippers, thereby increasing their magical powers.

I have to say this was one of the best plays I’ve personally seen at PLT. ( and I’ve seen some good ones too).
Sybil tugged at my heart and I started tearing up at the beginning of her speech but … literally … by the time she finished and left the stage I was sobbing….. extremely good acting and directing !! I had to sneak out the front past the actors because I was a blubbering idiot .. Please pass this on to the actors and directorsTeresa Warren

My husband and I went and saw “The Spitfire Grill” last weekend. It was FANTASTIC!
!!!! I felt completely drawn into the play. The setting, and costumes reinforc…ed the direction of the play, together with awesome musical character portrayals …giving the whole experience a five star overall performanc e. It is funny at times, emotionall y charged and has a great story line. Don’t miss your last chance to see this play. You won’t be disappoint ed Diana Lewis

Dear PLT, There’s rarely space to mention a theater’s physical facilities in a review but I do like your space.
“Just a note to say how much I appreciate the generous tiered seating, which provides such good sight lines for the audience. And the handrails in the aisles are useful to the older folk – I wish some of the larger theaters would copy! It’s always a pleasure to see a well-designed theater.”

Just wanted to drop you a line to say what a delightful time Rose Ann and I had on Friday night. You put together SUCH an excellent production and your direction was right on point. One of my bugaboos about staging comedy is pacing – seems as if so many directors these days never heard of it. But you have the knack and also the ability to transfer your energies to your cast. Also, you have SUCH a wonderfully talented, skilled and, best of all, enthusiastic group there. I can’t speak for other authors but I just can’t write enthusiasm into a play – that has to come from the performer. And your group really put forth that extra, and decidedly valuable, effort that makes a script a play, even a revue such as this one.
Thank you and your cast and crew. Really made our Christmas season to see your remarkable and, if i may say so, very funny show! I don’t feel the least bit awkward about saying that last part because SO much of the comedy came from your cast!Merry Christmas

The Houston Press
Pasadena Little Theatre was one of ten local theatres mentioned in the Houston Press online Christmas list of praise.
“Candy canes and full stockings to the many Houston theaters which do such brilliant work. Here’s a small sampling from a cornucopia of talent, in no particular order: “Pasadena Little Theatre for an excellent To Kill a Mockingbird and for the hand rails in the aisles that aid the elderly. “Best wishes, and thank you for the good work.
