Reedy Point Players are excited to present So There Was This Rat, directed by Ruth K. Brown.
Myra Guthrie has lost her Mother. Her Father, Virgil Eldridge, is completely heartbroken, and her husband, Carl, insists that Virgil come to live with them. After doing so, Virgil makes a new friend, Dave McMenamen. Some sort of chemical reaction happens, or something, when Virgil and Dave get together. The mischief meter goes WAY up, and they get into all SORTS of trouble. They have both been hard working men all their lives, and now that they are in their 70's, they figure it's time for a little FUN!
Additionally, Myra has five close girl friends. They LIVE for Mah Jongg. As a group, they feed off of one another, and CONSTANTLY jump to the wrong conclusions with regard to just about everything. Myra is at her wits end, trying to keep Virgil and Dave in tow, but through it all, she manages to come to know, to understand, and to love her Father more than ever. This is a charming, funny story about family and friendship... and an Ostrich! OH! And a RAT!
