“Cheatin’,” a comedy recommended for adult audiences only, is set in the West Texas watering hole of Lowake. Gossip is the town’s major pastime, igniting a blaze of infidelity that engulfs three couples. The clan includes Bo Bob, the dimwitted mailman, and Clarence, local stud and mechanic who’s been messin’ with Ovella since high school. His faithful girl is Sara Lee Turnover, the beautician. Teddy Joe, Ovella’s wronged husband who is more brawn than brain, Maybelline, the tall waitress who wants to be in love, and a narrator/ storyteller/singer who doubles as a psychic and believes in happy endings complete the cast.

Members of the cast are Bob O’Rourke as Sid Cranford, Jack Dreessen as Bo Bo Jasper, Arnold Govella as Clarence Hopkins, Connie Beane as Sara Lee Turnover, Bonnie Isaac as Ovella Parsons Wilks, Rick Adams as Teddy Joe Wilks and Judith Greer as Maybelline Cartwright.

The lighting and tech crew is comprised of Ginny Shaw and Darryl Meadows. Tom Dasch and his employees will construct the set and Arlene Hughes, Barbara Behrens and Janine Laroussa are the set painters.

Connie Beane will direct. “Cheatin’” is produced by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.
