The performance date is Saturday, February 4, 2012 at 3:00 p.m. New admission price is $8 in advance and $9 at the door. No charge cards. Call the theatre for senior group discounts. The box office phone number is (520) 882-0555.

 

My Friend Irma continues to be the most popular request. One of radio's funniest comedies, it starred Marie Wilson, Diana Lynn, John Lund  and a host of radio and TV greats. Most notably, it was the kick off for two of comedy's greats, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. My Friend Irma, and it's popularity and wacky ensemble of misfits, allowed it to go on to two movies, comic books and a huge TV success. There is a laugh every 4.5 seconds. IRMA:... when I was at the bank, I asked them to change my two thousand dollars for English money. They said they would give me 800 pounds. JANE: Well, what did you do? IRMA: They couldn't fool me. I put it on the scale...800 pounds? It hardly weighed four ounces.

 

Roy Rogers was one of America's greatest heros. A old-fashioned cowboy in a modern world, Roy was the hero of every young boy. along with his wife and singing partner, Dale, and their pal, Pat Brady, they always manage to get their man. But, what do they do when the villain is not human? Join us and find out in Roy Rogers: The Missing Atomic Scientist.
