FLC Seniors Stage West Theatre

One of our members reported that parking for the Wednesday afternoon show can be a problem, the matinee shows are quite popular. Our member had to park and walk a couple of blocks back to the theatre. She is recommending that FLC Seniors arrange car pooling, taxi (Uber) or a drop off and pick up when attending the matinee shows. In case you are not aware, there is a large parking lot behind the theatre as well as beside the front door.

Chapter Two by Neil Simon

Set late in the 1970’s Chapter Two is a semi-autobiographical play about Neil Simons’ relationship with his 2nd wife. Recent widower, writer George Schneider, is encouraged by his younger brother Leo to start dating again. This sends George into even more depression after a series of bad matches. Then Leo comes up with Jennie Malone, and she’s a keeper. Still, it’s a bumpy trip on the road to Dreamland for these not-so-young lovers. George and Jennie stumble on, overcoming both their hesitation on the rebound and emotional neediness. In a hilarious, farcical subplot, Leo has a fling with Faye, Jennie’s neurotic married friend.  PG13

A Closer Walk With Patsy Cline by Dean Regan

 One of the all-time legends of country music, Patsy Cline was always spunky and truly devoted to music.

Patsy was never shy about self-promotion and impressed everyone the moment they heard her. Featuring all her biggest hits from Walkin’ After Midnight, I Fall to Pieces, Crazy (written by Willie Nelson), She’s Got You, Leavin’ on Your MindSweet DreamsFaded Love, and all the way to her last single release of A Closer Walk with Thee. Patsy’s enduring musical legacy is witnessed by the fact that her music can cross generations and has inspired millions of musicians and fans alike with her charm, humour, and unmistakable voice. Patsy realized her lifetime ambition of joining the Grand Ole Opry in 1960, won ten awards at the WSM Country Music Festival, was memorialized with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement award, and she was inducted into the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Although she will never be replaced, A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline is a tribute to her spirit and a celebration of the music in her life.
