The
Autumn Players’ Readers Theatre Showcase Series Presents Other Desert Cities: In this contemporary drama set in
Palm Springs, a grown up daughter presents her parents with her soon to be
published memoir in which she challenges the integrity of their actions around
a tragic event in the past. The ensuing
confrontation threatens to splinter the family and compels her to face the
difference between memory and truth. Directed by Anita Chapman.
Performances are Friday, October 31 and Saturday, November 1, 2014 in
35below at Asheville Community Theatre and Sunday, November 2, 2014 at the
Reuter Center on the campus of UNCA. All performances begin at 2:30 pm.

Youth Production
Class Presents Charlotte’s Web: Charlotte’s
Web, named “the best American children’s book of the past two hundred years”
by the Children’s Literature Association, is brought to life onstage in this
enchanting play. All the favorite characters are here: Wilbur, the irresistible
young pig; Fern, a girl who understands what animals say to each other;
Templeton, the gluttonous rat; and the extraordinary spider, Charlotte, who
proves to be “a true friend and a good writer.” This is a beautiful, knowing
play about friendship that is a crowd-pleaser for audiences of all ages! This
production is performed by a class of students ranging in age from 7 to 13.
Performances are Thursday, October 30 at 7:30 pm; Saturday, November 1 and

with their production of God of
Carnage directed by Jeff Catanese. In God of Carnage, a playground altercation between 11 year-old
boys brings together two sets of Brooklyn parents to resolve the matter. At
first, diplomatic niceties are observed, but as the meeting progresses, the gloves
come off. Winner of the 2009 Tony Award.
God of Carnage will be performed November 7-23, 2014 with performances
Friday and Saturday nights at 7:30 pm and Sunday afternoons at 2:30 pm. All tickets are $15.00 and are available

twister hits her farm and carries her away over the rainbow to another world.

Scarecrow, the Tinman, the Cowardly Lion, a host of Munchkins, and the
wickedest witch of all! This production is performed by a class of students
