MAY 4, 2018, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A9 HERRERA: Representation, LEGO, continued from Page A1 UGB top agenda Investigating offi cers dis- covered a window had been broken and someone had en- tered the business but no one was found inside. An employ- ee of the business met with offi cers and determined that a cash register and fi ve sets of Star Wars-themed Legos had been taken for a total value of about $1,000. The suspect, and the ve- hicle he arrived in, were cap- tured on surveillance video. Shortly after 3 p.m. the same day, the investigating of- fi cer was contacted by the Or- egon City Police Department (OCPD) because an individ- ual was attempting to sell Star Wars Lego sets at the a Lego- themed store in Oregon City. Deputy Chief Jeff Kuhns, of the Keizer Police Depart- ment, was still waiting on re- ports from Oregon City at press time. He hoped the re- ports would reveal how the employees of the Oregon City store knew to call police when the suspect tried selling the stolen playsets. Working with a Keizer Po- lice Detective, Oregon City offi cers developed probable cause and arrested Keith Le- roy Fletcher, 52, of Portland, for fi rst-degree theft. Fletcher’s vehicle, a 2013 Nissan Sentra, which is thought to be the same vehi- cle caught on surveillance, was impounded and OCPD offi - cers were applying for a search warrant to look for additional evidence related to the crime.

BELOW: Braun, Smith and Zaitz act out a scene from the play. FOX, continued from Page A1 The play centers around rival country club presidents, Henry Bingham of Quail Valley Country Club, played by Jeff Minden, and Dickie Bell of Crouching Squirrel Golf and Racquet Club, played by Lyndon Zaitz. After fi ve years of losing the annual interclub tournament, Bingham places a large bet with Dickie, believing he has a sure thing winner in a new member, only to discover the morning of the tournament that Dickie has stolen the new member. In danger of losing his shirt, job and wife, Justin, a newly hired assistant who also happens to be a strong golfer, enters the picture with a chance to save Bingham’s bet. Justin, however, is distracted by his new fi ancee, Louise, a waitress at the club, and their antics put his golf performance in jeopardy. “It’s a lot of fun,” Minden said. “It’s hilarious.

It’s going to be a really funny show.” Jordan Reid has found it easy getting into the character of Justin. “I’m a very anxious person by nature,” Reid said. “I just had to delve into my inner crazy. It’s pretty intense and pretty fun. When you get to play a nervous character, you get to stutter a lot, which is something I do naturally.” Kiley Smith, who did theatre in high school in Stayton, plays Louise. It’s her second Keizer Homegrown show after taking part in Heaven Can Wait last November. “We have so much fun,” Noel said. “We’re all laughing. There’s a lot of energy in this. We all just have a great time together.” Wendy Braun and Becky Nielson make up the rest of the cast. Nielson plays Bingham’s wife—Muriel and Braun plays Pamela, a loyal Quail Valley booster. “I have the best cast I could ask for,” Strausbaugh said. “There’s a lot of bits in the show that the cast created themselves. Every cast member has added their character to the show and that is something every director dreams to have. I honestly think I have the perfect cast.” Tickets are $15 and available at the door or online at Brown Paper Tickets, www. b row n p a p e r t i c ke t s . c o m / event/3336496.
