SORDID LIVES

Theatre On Consignment serves up a heaping helping of Southern-fried comic melodrama with the uproarious comedy “Sordid Lives” by Del Shores. The play will run April 14, 15, 16, 22, and 23 at 8pm and April 24 at 2pm in the Linesight Theatre, located at 143 N. Rock Island on the third floor.

When their sister dies, Latrelle (Terri Ingram) and LaVonda (Deb Goin) plan her funeral -- an unenviable task, considering that the deceased passed on during a liason with amputee G.W. (Mac Welch)--much to the chagrin of his wife, the vindictive Noleta (Diane Tinker). Meanwhile, the family has to come to terms with two cases of sexual orientation: Latrelle's openly gay soap-opera star son Ty (John Sommerhauser), whose sexuality she continues to deny; and their only brother, Earl (Brad Purkey), who's serving a sentence in a mental ward for being gay--and dressing up like Tammy Wynette . Renee Purtee, Jason Miller, Deanne Zogelman, Marcey Gregory, Troy Dilport and David Bailey round out the ensemble cast.

Tickets are $8 ($5 for students and seniors). Opening night tickets (Thursday, April 14) are “Buy 1, Get 1 Free”. Seating is limited, and tickets can be reserved by calling Theatre On Consignment at 265-2226. The play contains some adult language and themes and is intended for mature audiences.
