Sure-Fire Comedy Play

Sure-Fire Comedy Play "Legends!"

Presented by Willits Community Theatre at Willits Community Theatre

Written by James Kirkwood Jr, and directed by Bill Barksdale, the play centers on two one-time movie legends who are courted by a desperate young hot-shot producer who needs to raise the money for his Broadway show–“Star Wars: The Play”. The fact that the two aging actresses have hated each other ever since the Hollywood publicity machine fabricated their feud decades ago poses the central challenge for these two stars to work together.

As a winner of the Tony Award and Pulitizer Prize for Drama, playwright Kirkwood is most well-known for his famed hit, “A Chorus Line.” Veteran director Barksdale brings his deft directorial touches to Kirkwood’s comedic gem, a play that is all about these two great actresses are struggling to reinvent themselves and their professional lives. Barksdale says, “The way this predicament shakes out leads to the deliciously hilarious results.” Starring in the show are Gretchen Anderson, Kathy deBane, Mary Burns, Christopher Martineau, Moises Torres, Anthony Sylstra.
