9 Men and 7 Women will be needed to cast this show (ages 20~70). This cast also calls for 1 African-American or Spanish Male and 1 African-American or Spanish Female.

Synopsis - The completely straitlaced Kirbys walk into a home where the inhabitants believe life should be lived, not as you are expected to, but as you really want to. Each person doing his or own thing and happy about it. A very funny comedy about tolerance and love.

For more information on this party read what our 45th Anniversary Party Chairperson, Terry Lynn Hale has to say below…

IT’S A PARTY!!!!!!  FORTY-FIVE YEARS OF EXCELLENCE

The Crighton Players began as the Little Theater of Conroe, in 1966, performing in an
old building on Thompson Street which had been a plumbing supply building. In 1978,
the Little Theater of Conroe and the citizens of Montgomery County, renovated the
Crighton Theater. This was our home until 2008. During that time, The Little Theater
of Conroe became known as The Crighton Playhouse, and lastly, the Crighton Players.

In 2008, thanks to the City of Conroe, we moved into our new home, The Owen Theater.
Over the past 45 years, the Players have brought literally hundreds of folks together to create literally hundreds of productions. The most wonderful thing about being a Crighton
Player is that ONCE A CRIGHTON PLAYER, ALWAYS A CRIGHTON PLAYER!

Players who were involved as children, often came back as adults – sometimes bringing their OWN children to work on a production, thus creating yet another generation of Crighton Players! We have entire families working on productions.

I’ll say this much, you may intend to work on just one production – but I can just about guarantee you’ll be back. And our audiences? Oh my goodness, where would we be without the hundreds and hundreds of folks (young and old) who have supported us over these 45 years? Well, we wouldn’t be celebrating 45 years of community theater in Montgomery County, that’s for sure!

O.K. That said, we want to get the word out to anybody and everybody who has ever
worked on a show or ever participated as an audience member. WE WANT YOU!
Please make our 45th Anniversary Party YOUR party of the spring season.
In addition to food and drink, we will gather to share stories and memories – led by a
fabulous foursome – Grace Thompson, Joe Viser, Marty Craig and Jim Walker.

We cannot wait to see you and hear your stories and share in your memories!

Sincerely,

Terry Lynn Hale,
A very proud 22 year member of The Crighton Players,
and Chair of the 45th Anniversary
