NEIL SIMON’S COMING-OF-AGE COMEDY ‘BRIGHTON BEACH MEMOIRS’

NCRD PERFORMING ARTS CENTER March 18th – April 2nd.

Tickets at www.RiverbendPlayers.org

Dreaming of baseball and girls, young Eugene must cope with the mundane existence of his family life in Brooklyn: formidable mother, overworked father, and his worldly older brother Stanley.

Throw into the mix his widowed Aunt Blanche and her two young (but rapidly growing) daughters and you have a recipe for hilarity, served up Simon-style.

Meet the Cast: Penny Cole as Blanche

Penny is returning to the stage after a 40-year hiatus, where she performed in many productions with the Footlighters Theater Company in Fort Bragg, CA.

She has been a full-time resident of Rockaway Beach for the last two years and is enjoying everything about her recent retirement, including her first performance in a Riverbend Players production.
