The scene is set for fun this weekend at Milleton Hall as the North of the Gully Drama Club presents Virgil's Family Reunion.
The play is described as "a hillbilly farce in two acts" and is part of a series by Eddie McPherson.
The drama club has presented the two other plays in the series and is back on the stage after a three-year absence. There are familiar faces and several new young members of the cast and crew this time around, ready to bring the zany group back to life.
The cast and crew have been busy rehearsing and collecting the props and costumes needed to continue the story of the Sludge and Hooper families and the challenges they face at the hands of a more well-to-do neighbour.
The club members are well known for their comic timing and the sense of fun they bring to the stage and rehearsals have shown they haven't lost their talent. The performances offer a chance to show off their skills on the stage as well as offering groups an opportunity to raise some money through catering opportunities.
This year the meals will be provided by the Milleton Hall group, the Anglican Church and the Baja Mission Group and the Maidstone Gully Multiple 4-H Club.
The Saturday and Sunday performances are sold out but there are still tickets available forthe dinner theatre Friday, March 30by calling Jenny at 893-2277.
