BTCPA invites audience to ‘Dearly Beloved’

The Bay Tree Council for the Performing Arts in Red Bay will soon be presenting its second production of the 2015-2016 season, “Dearly Beloved,” by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten. Performances will be held Feb. 11-13 at 7 p.m. and Feb. 14 at 2 p.m. at Community Spirit Bank’s Weatherford Centre in Red Bay.

Tickets will be available starting Feb. 1 at the Weatherford Centre weekdays from 2-4 p.m. Dinner theater will be provided, but tickets must be reserved in advance. Play tickets are $8, and the meal is $17. For additional information regarding tickets, including group rates, call Beth Hammock at 256-356-9286.

The cast includes Mary Moore, Katie Funderburk, Tina Smith, Susan Grissom, Jerry Self, Emily Edmonson, Hailey Garrison, Ethan Ray, Nathan Strickland and Dustin Edmonson, with Scotty Kennedy directing.

The Futrelle Sisters, Frankie, Honey Raye and Twink, are planning a wedding. Frankie has almost made herself sick with elaborate preparations for her daughter Tina Jo’s antebellum-inspired wedding, and the rumor mill in their small town of Fayro, Texas, is working overtime. No surprise there – the Futrelle Sisters have never been strangers to gossip. After all, they did survive the scandalous breakup of their almost-famous gospel singing trio, The Sermonettes. But Twink’s desperate attempts to get her boyfriend of 15.5 years down the aisle, Frankie’s ongoing conversations with their dead mother and Honey Raye’s tendency to race to the altar at every opportunity have kept tongues wagging for years. With a cantankerous wedding coordinator, a wedding dinner catered by Clovis Sanford’s House of Meat and a runaway bride and groom, will the Futrelle Sisters be able to pull this off?
