BILOXI BLUES Continues At Theatre In The Valley August 21st & 22nd

Theatre in the Valley's next production is Biloxi Blues by Neil Simon, directed by Theron LaFountain. Biloxi Blues opened August 16th at Sun City MacDonald Ranch's Desert Willow Clubhouse, and continues at the Henderson Convention Center tonight, Friday, August 21 and Saturday, August 22 (200 S. Water Street, Henderson, NV 89015). Tickets cost $10 for adults and $8 for children under 12.

The cast features Eugene Morris Jerome, Arnold Epstein, Joseph Wykowski, Don Carney, James Hennesey, Roy Selridg, Sgt Merwin J. Toomey, Daisy Hannigan, and Rowena.

Eugene Morris Jerome (alter ego of the youthful Neil Simon) is a young army recruit during the Second World War, going through his basic training, learning more about life, and developing his "Writer's Sensibility" at boot camp in Biloxi, Mississippi in 1943. Eugene and his fellow enlisted recruits suffer under a hard-nosed sergeant, partake of the daily "mess" served up for meals, join together for a visit to the local whorehouse and officially Become Adults. Eugene also confronts the ugly specter of anti-Semitism; and, for the first time, falls in love. (Tony Award Best Play 1985).
