PAGE A6, KEIZERTIMES, MAY 22, 2015 KHT’s Patsy Cline still showing at Keizer Lions By ERIC A. HOWALD Of the Keizertimes In 1961, Louise Seger showed up early for a Patsy Cline show at Houston’s Es- quire Ballroom. Seger found in Cline’s music a refl ection of her own life as a divorced, single mother and became some- thing of a “superfan” in current parlance. Seger met Cline before the show and the encounter set off a two- year friendship kept alive through phone calls and let- ters until Cline’s death in a plane crash in 1963. The pair’s story is the basis of the play Always … Patsy Cline, Keizer Homegrown Theatre’s latest production, which opened with shows Iris Festival weekend at the Keizer Lions Club, 4100 Cherry Avenue N.E. The run continues May 22, 23, 29 and 30 at the same site. Cur- tain time is 7 p.m. each night. Tickets to all shows are $12. In some ways, the story of the two lead actresses, Taylor Pawley and Carolyn Ego- Johnson, mimics the story of the characters they play. “Carolyn and I met when we were doing I Love You You’re Perfect, Now Change, and we became inseparable,” said Pawley. “Our lives had so many parallels, down to driving the same car and working for our family businesses,” Ego- Johnson added. Pawley takes on the role of Cline, backed by a band police scanner MONDAY, MAY 11 • 11:27 a.m. - Unlawful posses- sion of marijuana on 500 block Chemawa Road N. • 4:08 p.m. - Theft on 700 block Arleta Place NE. • 8:22 p.m. - Hit-and-run acci- dent on 3400 block Willamette Drive N. • 10:02 p.m. - Reckless driving on 4400 block River Road N. TUESDAY, MAY 12 KEIZERTIMES/Eric A. Howald Carolyn Ego-Johnson, as Louise Seger, breaks the fourth wall in the opening night production of Keizer Homegrown Theatre’s production of Always ... Patsy Cline. of local musicians, and Ego- Johnson plays Seger. The pair have been “liv- ing the show” since January rehearsing on their own and more recently with the full band. “I’ve done a ton of re- search and she was the most hard-working, wonderful, genuine person,” Pawley said. “Everyone respected her, es- pecially the men. They intro- duced her as ‘Country Su- perstar Patsy Cline.’” Pawley is no stranger to musical theatre, but there was one small problem in por- traying Cline. “Patsy had a specifi c way of performing and it was not moving very much. It’s been diffi cult to just stand there and other people yell- ing at me to keep my hands at my side and stop moving so much,” Pawley said. For her part, Ego-Johnson is making some changes to her role. “The way that Louise is written is not the way her family would have written her in the show, and we are trying to be true to the real Louise Seger and honor her. She was a beauty queen at one point and would have been a good old southern woman,” Ego-Johnson said. “The piece that took me by surprise was how tough Cline’s life was with a tough marriage and kids. She was struggling and was open with Louise about it.” • 7:00 a.m. - Theft from motor vehicle on 1200 block Horizon Ridge Court NE. • 7:30 a.m. - Theft on 1400 block Woodward Street NE. • 8:29 a.m. - Vandalism on 900 block Sagrada Circle N. • 5:39 p.m. - Theft on 1100 block Willow Lake Road N. • 8:00 p.m. - Vandalism on 6400 block Keizer Station Boulevard NE. • 11:00 p.m. - Vandalism on 5300 block Verda Lane NE.

CR 0807 Pets provide companionship and uncon- ditional love for their owners, and no matter what hardships people face, their pets are there with them every step of the way. We at Willamette Valley Animal Hospital have seen the need for veterinary care for the pets of the homeless here in Marion County, and have taken action. Teaming with the Petco South Salem, Petco Keizer Station, Second Chance Salem Dog Rescue, Hopes Haven, GoodFellas, Salem Dogs, Pittie Pals and Fences for Fido, we are raising the funds to vaccinate, deworm, provide fl ea control, complete health exams and spay or neuter all these pets! Through charitable donations, we have already provided pet food and blankets for pets in great need. The demand is high and we continue to collect donations of these items and the money that’s needed to provide medical necessities to those pets whose loving owners have hit hard times. On-site veterinary care is also being provided! Scheduled events brings Dr. Mark Stoenner, DVM, to areas more accessible for the homeless to bring their pets for care. You can contact our Community Outreach Coordinator Juan Lopez for details on our next event. Our phone number is 503-393-7462. Sponsor one of these great pets online!
