Upcoming Show
Join the six Walker sisters in "Belles:The Reunion" as they discuss, via the telephone, their loves, their lives, and "Mama's" behavior at the nursing home on Sunday, July 30th at 2 pm at Starlighters II Community Theatre.
The play by Mark Dunn is his second centering on the Walker sisters who all grew up in Memphis but have since scattered across the country. Dunn has even chosen Cedar Rapids as one of the sisters' residences.
He writes some serious moments and revelations, as well as heart-warming moments with much interwoven laughter.
The presentation will be done in a modified Readers Theatre style. Cast includes Kathleen Weiss, Dawn Marek, Betty Jean Moeller, Jan Beardsley, Carrie Rinehart, Jan Cratsenberg, and Jayson Stover.
Dessert will be served to patrons after the show at tables set up in the lobby.

This is an opportunity for our actors to act out their favorite story. We ask the participants to bring 1 or two of their favorite books and pick out 1-2 pages that can be used to act out.
If you are interested in being a part of this opportunity, our first meeting will be on April 30th from 2pm-4pm.
Please come prepared with your book of choice. Have more questions? Contact us here.
