Lake Players to present two short plays

Lake Players of Smith Mountain Arts Council will present two short plays and an interlude of music on Friday, March 19 at 5:30 p.m. at Bernard's Landing Conference Center in Moneta.

"Laundry and Bourbon," a one-act play by James McLure, will feature Joyce Dittrich, Marion Wetcher and Sandy Sampson. Three women in a small Texas town sit on a porch, gossip and share secrets in a style that calls to mind life in any small town.

During the break between play readings, Mike DeGeorgi, Mike Dittrich and Larry Sakayama will perform folk, jazz and blues numbers.

Will and Mary Hockersmith will play an elderly couple who talk about life in a retirement community in "I'm Herbert" by Robert Anderson.

Guests are requested to bring a heavy hors d'oeuvre or a dessert to share. Wine, soft drinks and coffee will be provided. Rervations are required. Cost is $5 per person.
