Nick Olcott directs the comedy that humorously delves into the lives of book club members. The Book Club Play began performances July 8 and will continue through July 19.
The cast of club members who do and don't crack the books includes Cherise Boothe (Lily), Sarah Marshall (Expert/Pundit), Keira Naughton (Ana), Bhavesh Patel (Alex), Tom Story (Will), C.J. Wilson (Rob) and Anne Louise Zachry (Jen).
The Book Club Play "examines the popular phenomena of book clubs: the intricate rules, the intricate friendships, and the intricate need for food. Hilarious and heartbreaking, it reveals the impact of literature on our lives and friendships," according to press notes.
Designing the production are R. Michael Miller (scenic design), Laurie Churba (costume design), J. Hagenbuckle (sound design), Ann G. Wrightson (lighting design) and Shawn E. Boyle (projection design).
