We’re super bummed—but we have to cancel Garden Variety’s gig tonight. (Which was set to be at the Lighthouse at 7)

There was an injury that has made it impossible for one of our key members to play. And all we want is for him to recover!

Thanks to all who were planning on coming out in support tonight! We’ll let you know where we’re back. Take care til then!

IN SEARCH OF A 1970s (OR OLDER) KITCHEN STOVE FOR OUR NEXT PLAY

Submitted By: fsquillo@riverbendplayers.org – Click to email about this post

Hi!

Riverbend Players needs a stove from the 1970s (or older) for our next production.

The popular colors then were avocado green, yellow, and brown, but any color will do. It’s a very Brady Bunch-looking stove.

I’ve attached a picture as an example of what we’re looking for.

It doesn’t have to work, and we could return it after production.

If you don’t have one, please ask around for us. We’d appreciate the help!

Thank you, and Happy Holidays!!!

‘A CHRISTMAS STORY’ IS RIVERBEND PLAYERS MOST ATTENDED PRODUCTION EVER! FINAL 3 SHOWS!

Submitted By: admin@riverbendplayers.org – Click to email about this post

‘A CHRISTMAS STORY’ SETS ALL-TIME BOX OFFICE ATTENDANCE RECORD

RIVERBEND PLAYERS MUST-SEE HOLIDAY COMEDY FINAL THREE SHOWS!

DEC. 15th – 17th at the NCRD Performing Arts Center in Nehalem.

Reserved Seating and Showtimes at www.RiverbendPlayers.org Children 12 and under $10, General $20, Premium $25

A CHRISTMAS STORY:
Humorist Jean Shepherd’s memoir of growing up in the Midwest in the late 1930s follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker in his quest to get a genuine Red Ryder BB gun under the tree for Christmas.

Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher, and even Santa Claus himself at Higbee’s Department Store. The consistent response: “You’ll shoot your eye out!”

All the elements from the beloved motion picture are here, including the family’s temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boys’ experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie’s father winning a lamp shaped like a woman’s leg in a net stocking; Ralphie’s fantasy scenarios and more.

A Christmas Story, a theatrical holiday treat!

Flood Us With Support!!

Dear Community,

We were preparing the store for you – dressing up our mannequins, making cedar boughs and hanging vintage decorations.

Then, the rain came. A lot of rain.

The rain came with such force, it burst a culvert above our building and sent a muddy river through our office, store, workshop and out the front door! 4 inches of water pooled at our front counter the following morning. Fans, heaters and de-humidifiers are running full blast as we try to dry out walls and contents.

One might think, “it’s all trash, right? It was headed for the landfill.” Wrong.

We believe that discards are valuable resources. We love every piece of artwork, old book, severed doll head, vintage typewriter, and handmade card in our store. We lovingly unboxed and cleaned and repaired every single thing on our shelves. We are now looking across the store at damp chaos and it’s heartbreaking.

We promised each item that we would find it a new home.

We need the store’s revenue to burst into Spring with fresh energy, to organize Trash Bash, to pay our vision leader! Aside from closing to dry out, we are looking to close for a longer winter break, so we can reorganize.

Can you please give a little to help us cover operations this winter?
