This year's Community Players productions include Sure Thing by David Ives, The Brute by Anton Chekhov, adapted by Bernard Lawrence, Services Rendered by L.E. Preston, and Ladies of the Mop by Aurand Harris.

In Sure Thing, two people meet in a café and find their way through a conversational minefield as an offstage bell interrupts their false starts, gaffes and faux pas on the way to falling in love.  Directed by Eric Barbato, the cast includes Tara Weinstein and Michael Dube.

The Brute directed by James Sulanowski and features David Almeida, Lee Hakeem, and Dawn Souza, is a romantic comedy in which a young widow swears off the company of men forever;  that is until the landowner tries to collect from a neighbor, but ends up collecting the young widow instead.

Services Rendered is about a group of young campers who are caught up in the search for Joe, a missing friend.  In spite of the fact they all had spent the summer together, and it has been a very happy summer, they do not want to become involved.  They report to his family that Joe is missing and pretend he was merely a stranger.  That is until Benson offers to tell the family the truth, but for this he wants payment for "services rendered".  Directed by Kara Marziali the cast includes Daniel Fisher, Kerri Lynn Costa, Dave Sackal, Kaitlyn Alyse Vicente and Dalita Getzoyan.

Ladies of the Mop, directed by John Ricci and featuring Lia DelSesto, Christie Harrison, Mary Thompson and Maryann Ricci on keyboard, focuses on four mature cleaning women attending to the mopping of the theatre after a night's performance.  Each of the four becomes lost for a brief moment in their dreams of the stage.  After all perform their "talents" individually to one another, they perform simultaneously until a whistle blows and breaks the spell.

Produced at Jenks Junior High School located on Division Street in Pawtucket, across from McCoy Stadium, performances of 4 by 4 by 4 are scheduled for Friday, September 7 and Saturday, September 8 at 8:00 pm and Sunday, September 9 at 2:00 pm.  Tickets are $10 for general admission and $8 for Community Players members who show a current membership card at the door.  Reservations are not required.
