heater to put Roaring ’20s fun in fundraiser
RAYMOND, Wash. — The
antics of Harold Lloyd, the
silent movie-era master of
living on the edge, will come
to Raymond on Saturday,
Oct. 15 with the showing of
the 1923 comedic silent ilm
“Why Worry?” accompanied
on the piano by Dave Milne.
The screening caps off
a night of 1920s-themed
entertainment as part of a
fundraiser for the historic
Raymond Theatre.
Enjoy cabaret-style acts
by local performers includ-
ing Lew Chapman on the
trumpet, singers and the
Gayle Russell Dancers. Beer
and wine will be served, but
remember: It’s the Prohi-
bition era, so just tell ‘em
Harold sent ya’.
Locals are encouraged
to dress the part for the
evening (lappers welcome).
Get your mugshot in your
knee-duster and fedora at the
picture booth.
Doors open at 5:30
p.m. with hors d’oeuvres
served at 6 p.m. Local acts
will keep the audience
entertained, with master of
ceremonies Mike Williams
trying desperately to avoid
using the hook.
Don’t be alarmed if
unsavory gangster-looking
characters carrying violin
cases wander the theater.
They’re just there to politely
sell rafle tickets. The ad-
mission ticket also doubles
as a rafle ticket, so hold on
to the stub. Buy additional
tickets to increase your odds
of winning.
Prizes include a week’s
accommodations in Hawaii,
two weekend stays at the
Blackbird Inn in the Bavar-
ian-themed town Leaven-
worth, and tickets for Sunday
Afternoon Live’s November
show, Cash’d Out, a Johnny
Cash tribute band.
The 1928 building needs
numerous leaky roof repairs
and a new heating system. In
2016 dollars, that’s estimat-
ed to be $50,000. Theater
manager Anne Steele hopes
residents throughout Paciic
County will recognize the
value of the building and
join the fun on Oct. 15.
“This is a lovely theater
with a storied past,” she
said. “It’s a cultural center
for live acts and popular
movies. But we need your
help to ensure it continues to
be available for generations
to come.”
Sunday Afternoon Live
hosts 10 or more perfor-
mances each year at the
theater, bringing in acts that
include tenor Terry Barber,
folk singer Andy Hackbarth
and children’s performers.
In addition, the theater
shows current movies,
classics and is available for
rental. Parties, meetings
and community events are
welcome, Steele said.
Tickets are $15 for adults
and $6 for students and
children under 18. Tickets
are available in advance at
South Bend Pharmacy, 101
Willapa Ave. in South Bend;
and Sagen’s Pharmacy, 515
Commercial St. in Raymond.
The theater is located at
323 Third St. in Raymond.
