FOOD SHARE FUND RAISER Class Act Theatre to premiere comedy ‘Sylvia’ Friday The cat will mew and every dog will have his day at Class Act Theatre (CAT) as Florence’s newest theater company opens the second show of its premier season Friday, Sept. 23 with A. R. Gurney’s “Sylvia,” a hilarious comedy about a marriage put on the skids when a dog wan- ders into their lives. David Lauria will direct and star in this both poignant and funny look at middle age and the mid-life crisis years. Paula Lindekugel-Willis will be assistant director. “I was drawn to this play by its wit and fast pace” said Lauria. “‘Sylvia’ holds up a mirror to today’s relation- ships.” Sylvia is the story of what happens when middle-aged Greg finds a dog in the park and brings her home. His wife, Kate, is launching her COURTESY PHOTO CAT directors David Lauria and Paula Lindekugel-Willis career as an English teacher specializing in Shakespeare and enjoying their empty nest. Greg, however, is frus- trated with his current job as a financial trader. Then Sylvia, a street smart mix of Labrador and Poodle, becomes Greg’s best friend and gives his life new purpose — but she drives a major wedge between Kate and Greg. Filled with lots of laughs and thoughtful insights, Sylvia is a unique and percep- tive look at modern love. Sylvia will run Sept. 23, 24, 25, 30, and Oct. 1 and 2. Show times are Fridays and Saturdays at 7 p.m. and Sundays at 2 pm. Tickets are $18 for general admission, $16 for seniors and Military and can be pur- chased online at www.catpro ductions .org.
