Comedy dinner theater brings laughs



By Susan Deardorff

Grace United Methodist Church in Wellsville held a comedy dinner theater Saturday, November 1, and Sunday, November 2. The play was entitled “The Real Housewives of Crickett County” by Eddie McPherson.

The cast of fourteen, known as the GUM Players, had a rollicking good time portraying this hillbilly comedy about some Crickett County housewives who want so much to be like their new neighbors, but learn that common sense and love are a great deal more important. Over 120 people attended this fundraising/outreach event, raising $1,500.

A chicken dinner, complete with homemade apple pies for dessert, was served by Dorothy Kauffman and Kim Crone. It was a wonderful evening full of laughter, great food, and fellowship.
