COMMUNITY THEATER FOR THE ARKANSAS VALLEY - FOUNDED 1968


"LION IN WINTER" APRIL DATES SET

    LA JUNTA - It's now definite. The Lion won't roar in Picketwire Center until early spring. The Picketwire Players' board of directors have okayed director Ken Schroll's rescheduling proposal. Performances of the historical drama "Lion in Winter" are now scheduled for April 12-13-14, 2012.
    Schroll told the board he plans to start rehearsals in late February. Prospective cast members have "all signed on (barring the unforeseen)." He's hoping to get the seven together for a few preliminary read-throughs over the next three months. Public announcement of the cast will come in February.
    This leaves the community theater with a blank marquee for the holiday season. Everybody's busy schedules makes it problematic coming up with another December event. Ideas/suggestions from community organizations would be most welcome, and should be directed to the Picketwire Center answering machine, 384-8320.
    First event on the Picketwire Players' 2012 schedule will be the annual membership meeting and "Gala" now set for January 21. It will be the start of the 45th year for what the 1968 founders envisioned would be "Community Theater for the Arkansas Valley."
    "Lion in Winter" is now slated to be the Picketwire Players' 125th production.
