The PCT production of “Damn Yankees” continues this weekend at the Plaza Theatre. Performances Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm and a final matinee performance on Sunday at 2:30 pm.
This fun, family musical is is directed and choreographed by Christine Sheehan, with musical direction by Phillip Briggs.
“Damn Yankees” begins when Joe Boyd, a fan of the hapless Washington Senators, meets Mr. Applegate, a devilishly funny man who promises Joe that he can boost his team to fame and the World Series… in exchange for his soul. Hilarity ensues as Joe tries to help his team and get back to his wife, Meg. Along the way we meet the lovable Senators players and their manager, Mr. Van Buren, the beguiling Lola, ace reporter Gloria, and many more.
The cast features Clay Wienecke as Joe Hardy, Riley Collard as Mr. Applegate, Haley Hines as Lola, Will Walker as Joe Boyd, Tammy Glaze as Meg, Keaton Raney as Van Buren, and Robyn Huizinga as Gloria, plus many more talented local actors.
The Paris Community Theatre is thrilled to bring this summertime treat to audiences thanks to the generous sponsorship of Kimberly-Clark and Lamar National Bank.
