Synopsis:
Neil Simon’s revision of his hugely successful play, The Odd Couple, sees the lead characters transformed into Olive Madison and Florence Unger. Olive and their group of girlfriends are enjoying their weekly Trivial Pursuit night in Olive’s messy apartment when Florence arrives, fresh from being dumped by her husband. Olive invites her to move in as her roommate. However, Olive and Florence have VERY different personalities, testing their friendship to the limit. When Olive organizes a double-date with the Costazuela brothers, their differences come to a head and sparks fly.
-
Characters:

-Olive Madison: Olive is a successful television producer. She is intelligent and wisecracking, with a good sense of humor - and she's a complete slob when it comes to her surroundings. She has an encyclopedic understanding of sports, is a complete pushover for her ex-husband, and a good friend.

-Florence Unger: Florence is put-together neat and has just broken up with her husband. She takes herself very seriously, likes to clean, decorate and cook and is very good at all three. Flo is also intelligent, warm-hearted (in her own way), and has no sense of humor (at least about herself) - she does NOT make jokes.

-Sylvie: Sylvie is desperately trying to stop smoking, and so sucks on lollipops or chews gum. She can get irritated with her friends, but has a good sense of humor, especially about her husband.

-Mickey: Mickey is a police officer, who is down-to-earth, plain talking, and has a good understanding of people. Sometimes she can take the "police bit" too far and she tries very hard to be in control of all situations.

-Renee: Renee is Sylvie's best friend. She can be very plain-spoken, especially when she points out Olive's failings as a hostess, and then Flo's. She is single and dating a doctor.

-Vera: Vera is very sweet, very nice, somewhat spacey, and, although quite smart, is often a step or two behind her friends. She's very funny but doesn't realize it. She is married to Harry.

-Manolo Costazuela: *Spanish accent. Manolo is very well groomed and Spanish. He is very woman's dream date and showers both Olive and Flo with attention. He is sensitive and appreciates Florence's sensitivity. Jesus’s older brother.

-Jesus Costazuela: *Spanish accent. Jesus is Manolo's younger brother, who is also well-groomed, excellent posture, very romantic, and he also gets very emotional, and truly appreciates Florence.

Congrats to the cast of The Other Place!!

May we have your Attention:

Today's matinee of "Don't Dress For Dinner " is officially SOLD OUT!
A huge thank you goes out to everyone who attended our first four performances as we couldn't do this without you!!!

Also, a very generous patron emailed our box office the other day with the following message to the cast and crew and we wanted to share it with you:

"Thank you for the OUTSTANDING Thursday night performance! My wife and I stayed engaged in your play the entire time. Your timing and ability to play off of one another without missing a beat was fantastic. I'm so grateful The Santa Rosa Community Theatre is represented with such class and amazing people. You're a hidden treasure in the heart of Milton."

That message means the world to us and it's one of the reasons we do what we do. THANK YOU!

Tickets are still available for our Thursday and Friday shows next week and a very small amount are left for next Saturday and Sunday. Come out and join us for an evening filled with laughter and good times.

Now that Opening Night nerves have come and gone, we wanted to spotlight the talented directors behind SRCT's production of Marc Camoletti's outrageously funny "Don't Dress For Dinner. "

Dianna Hendrick

An Air Force veteran, Dianna has assumed many roles since she joined the SRCT family. From stage manager and set dresser to production coordinator and Box Office guru, she loves being a part of all things theatre. She last stepped on the stage as an actor in our 2023 production of "Mousetrap" and can't wait to do it again. When she's not volunteering, she enjoys snuggling with her cats, doing puzzles, and making anything crafty. She is grateful for the support of her husband, amazing daughters, family, and friends.

Jonathan McIntosh

Jonathan has been a part of SRCT since 2018 when he auditioned for a role in "Murder in Green Meadows." Since then, he spends his time jumping from stage to screen and back again having appeared in shows like "NCIS: New Orleans" and films "Ray" and "Zombeez." He first directed a virtual production of "A Christmas Carol" back in 2020 for the theatre and also recently directed the pilot episode of a locally shot series, "Kookville" now streaming on Prime Video. He is thankful for the support of his family, friends, and grateful they all put up with his "Dad Jokes."

This is the third collaboration for Dianna and Jonathan, having previously worked together on "Deathtrap" and "Weekend Comedy." We think you'll agree they make a great team; come check out their latest show now on stage through Sunday, June 7th.

🚨🚨It's OPENING NIGHT for "Don't Dress For Dinner" at SRCT!!!!🚨🚨

Written by Marc Camoletti and adapted by Robin Hawdon, we think audiences are going to love this hilarious production set in the French countryside.

Our final cast spotlight shines on:

Adam Willis-Meche as Robert

"The first show I saw was South Pacific when I was about 8. It did not inspire me to be on-stage.

My first role on stage was Samuel Ratchet in Murder on the Orient Express.

If I had the opportunity for a role on Broadway, I would love Toulouse-Lautrec in Moulin Rouge. His is such a fun and extravagant role.

My favorite part is getting to meet so many people and learn from them... actors, directors, light/sound crew. I really enjoy rehearsals. It's fun and exciting to watch characters develop. The people are the greatest."

Come join Adam and the rest of our fantastic cast as they take the stage starting tonight through June 7th. Tickets are still available and can be purchased at the link in the comments below. ⬇️⬇️

"Don't Dress For Dinner" opens tomorrow night, do you have your tickets yet?

Our next Spotlight falls on:

Carla Rhodes as Jacqueline

The first play I saw was Charlie & the Chocolate Factory- my sister was in it in the 5th grade.

My first "real" role was the White Queen & the ensemble of Alice in Wonderland in my freshmen year in college. I thought I could work backstage but everyone was assigned roles to my horror. I was pretty shy. And I had to sing a song! I wasn’t very happy about it at first but I slowly gained a love of the process. After that I was hooked!

My dream role is Miranda in The Devil Wears Prada. Love that show!

My favorite part of theater is …everything! I love creating a character, rehearsing, decorating the set and directing. I never get bored- there’s always something to do. And the people you meet there are the best bonus!

Tickets are still available for tomorrow night's opening performance. Follow the link in the comments to get yours before they're gone. ⬇️⬇️
