CAT announces auditions
for ‘Grace and Glorie’
Class Act Theatre (CAT),
along with Florence Actors
Theatre (formerly Florence
Repertory Theatre Company),
aka FATCAT Productions,
announce auditions for the
part of Gloria in an upcoming
production of Tom Ziegler’s
“Grace and Glorie.”
Audition dates for “Grace
and Glorie” are Saturday, May
7, from 7 to 9 p.m. and
Sunday, May 8, from 2 to 4
p.m. at CAT.
A prepared monologue is
not necessary, but those audi-
tioning are encouraged to bor-
row a script from the Siuslaw
Public Library or by calling
the Class Act Theatre at 541-
997-4815 to check out a
script.
Gloria is a stage age 30 to
40ish year old woman trans-
planted from Manhattan to
rural Virginia in this heart-
warming, surprisingly funny
play about preparing for end
of life, recovery from trauma
and the healing, life-affirming

power of simple friendship.
“Grace and Glorie” will be
performed the weekends of
Aug. 5 to 7 and 12 to 14 at the
Class Act Theatre, at 509
Kingwood St. at the corner of
Kingwood
Street
and
Rhododendron Drive.
Director Paula Lindekugel-
Willis called the script, “an
artfully written play surround-
ing the themes of human con-
trast, life lessons and building
respect and friendships.”
“I feel honored that Class
Act Theatre has agreed to pro-
duce this for their 2016-17
season,” Lindekugel-Willis
said. “One would think that a
play dealing with an eighty
something, dying, remote
West Virginia mountain
woman who encounters a
younger, former New York
professional who is now vol-
unteering as a rural hospice
worker would not have humor
but this does. These are two
real and believable charac-
ters.”

shovels, saws and hammers to
build a four-bedroom house.
A minimum of 500 hours of
“sweat equity” will be com-
piled by the Fuller adults and
their friends before the house
is completed.
Family partners Ginny
Kelly and Diane Bailiff
will work closely with the
family to guide it through the
building process and the
financial literacy, budgeting
and home maintenance class-
es required of all Habitat fam-
ilies.
This was Kelley’s 28th
groundbreaking in Florence.
When the house is complet-
ed it will be sold to the
Fullers via a 30-year, zero-
interest mortgage. The part-
nership between Habitat for
Humanity and its home buy-
ers is a very long-term associ-
ation.
The
Fuller
children,
Destani, 14, Alexandra, 10,
Lelend, 4, and Joycelynn,
8 months, will have a stable
home in which to grow
up while their parents become
contributing members of
their new neighborhood and
the Florence community.
Anyone who is interested
in helping Habitat for
Humanity is encouraged to
call 541-902-9227, or stop in
the Habitat Office at 2004
Highway 101, in the Grocery
Outlet shopping mall.
