TACTA PRODUCTIONS ON THE BOARDS THIS WEEK
-------------------------------------------
The Tulsa Spotlight Theatre presents "Little Women."

Share this timeless and enduring classic about the March sisters' journey from childhood to maturity during the American Civil War. Audiences of all generations will enjoy acquainting-or reacquainting-themselves with the sisters: Meg, the eldest; Jo, the high-spirited tomboy; Amy, the self-centered beauty; and gentle Beth, as well as their beloved Marmee and Father. Together the March family learns to endure both good times and bad as they share the joys and pains of growing up. Interlaced with warmth, family loyalty and traditional values, all these important events provide us with a better understanding of our own lives.

Performances are April 23-25 and April 29 - May 2. Thursday and Friday performances are at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday performances are at 2:00 p.m.

The Spotlight Theatre is located at 1381 Riverside Dr. in Tulsa.

As word arrives on Inishmaan that the Hollywood director Robert Flaherty is coming to the neighboring island of Inishmore to film MAN OF ARAN, the one person who wants to be in the film more than anybody is young Cripple Billy, if only to break away from the bitter tedium of his daily life.

You Can't It With You " will delight you with its humor, eccentric characters , and slightly madcap story line.
The Sycamores seem mad, but it is not long before we realize that if they are made, the rest of the world is madder. In contrast to these delightful people are the unhappy Kirbys. The plot shows how Tony, attractive young son of the Kirbys, falls in love with Alice Sycamore and brings his parents to dine at the Sycamore home on the wrong evening. The shock sustained by the Kirbys, who are invited to eat cheap food, shows Alice that marriage with Tony is out of the question.

The play won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and was made into a movie featuring Jimmy Stewart and Jean Arthur that is available on DVD .

The Drinking Party

An original stage-adaptation of Plato's Symposium

LAST WEEKEND! April 23 and 24

8:00pm, $10

With stunning simplicity and clarity, Plato's classic masterpiece depicts the brilliant luminaries of the Greek world enjoying witty, provocative, and slightly drunken discourse, on the virtues of Love. Plato provides not only a contemporary portrait of such legends as Socrates, Aristophanes, and Alcibiades, but also demonstrates the famous Socratic method in action, and offers a charming yet profound analysis of the chosen topic. This production features an original translation by Amy Page Wilson, and is adapted for the stage by John Cruncleton.

Director, Catherine Christie, will be auditioning actors of all ages for this poignant story of friendship and growth. Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. Please have about one minute of music prepared to sing.

This powerful adaptation focuses the humor, warmth and emotional intensity of the award-winning novel.

Together they create Terabithia, a fantasy kingdom where they are safe from those who do not understand them. When tragedy strikes, the strength gained in Terabithia takes Jesse forward on his own and lets him share the magic of his dreams.
