Two cops. Three crooks. Eight doors. Go. In a cheap motel room, an embezzling mayor is supposed to meet with his female accountant, while in the room next-door, two undercover cops wait to catch the meeting on videotape. But there’s some confusion as to who’s in which room, who’s being videotaped, who’s taken the money, who’s hired a hit man, and why the accountant keeps taking off her clothes.

Suggestive Situations

This show will be performed in a temporary location, 251 N. Orchard (next door to the Tandy Leather store).

From the bonny shores of England comes the Styckes-Upon-Thump Repertory Theatre Company, a stuffy old travelling troupe embarking on their fifteenth annual farewell tour of the Dickens’ tale. The company includes a cast of familiar characters every theater audience will recognize including the consummate actor and the theater diva. When the diva decides to play sick, thinking she’s indispensable, the understudy is thrust into the limelight because the show must go on. Unfortunately, the diva won’t stand for this and mayhem ensues as she tries to take her role back.

A Comedy written by Larry Shue and directed by Curtis Ransom

Courtesy of Dramatists

Run Dates: Sept. 1, 2, 3, 4, Sept 8, 9, 10

Due to permit issues, this show will be performed in a temporary space located at the corner of Orchard & Emerald, 5012 Emerald next door to Wireless Toyz and Sonic.

“Froggy” LeSeuer is once again visiting his favorite fishing lodge in rural Georgia accompanied by his pathologically shy friend, Charlie, who is overcome with terror at the thought of making conversation with strangers. “Froggy” concocts a story that Charlie is a foreigner from an exotic country who speaks no English. When “Froggy” leaves Charlie alone, the other lodge visitors speak freely in front of Charlie.  Deep secrets and evil plans all unravel in front of Charlie and hilarity ensues as the ‘bad guys’ are pitted against ‘good’ in a climax that will leave you laughing til you can’t speak.

Winner of two Obie Awards and two Outer Critics Circle Awards as Best New American Play and Best Off-Broadway Production, written by the author of The Nerd.

All audiences

Call 342.2000 for reservations.

To mark the end of our 30th season and to ramp up for Season 31, we will all meet up at the home of Vera Cederstrom, who has graciously opened up her home and yard to us yet again.  It is located at 8528 Vincent St., Boise.

For those who haven’t been or haven’t been in a long time, picnic starts at 4 and everyone brings something to grill and a dish to share. SCT provides tableware, condiments and so…ft drinks.

At 5 pm the Annual Meeting will officially start and election of new board members. If you are are interested in being on the SCT Board of Directors, please contact Jeff Thomson (jat@elamburke.com).

If you aren’t interested in being a board member but would still like to help, there’s positions available on the Executive Committee as well as House and Box Office. Contact Jeff on that as well.

The newly elected board will adjourn for a brief board meeting, appoint officers and return and we will start the Masque Awards.

Please come down and visit with friends, reminisce on seasons and shows past, and of course, if you are interested, step up and help with the leadership.

Please feel free to pass this along to all of your friends and neighbors, the more the merrier.
