Reader's Theatre: Hate Mail at The Slogar
June 6 & 7, 7:30 pm

CBMT teams up with The Slogar to bring you this year's Reader's Theatre production Hate Mail by Bill Corbett and Kira Obolensky and directed by Hali Jones. Enjoy a leisurely dinner at 6:00 and then an evening of entertainment as Tricia Seeberg and Bruce Eckel tell the tale of two miss-matched Americans as they move from hate to love and then right back again.  A comedy in every sense of the word.

Performances are at 7:30 p.m. June 6 & 7 at the Slogar at 517 Second Street. Dinner Seating promptly at 6:00 p.m. Doors open at 7:15 for the show. Theatre Tickets $10.  Dinner (Additional Charge) consisting of The Slogar Bill of Fare. Dinner and/or Theatre reservations can be made by calling either CBMT at 349-0366 or The Slogar at 349-5765.  You can purchase tickets just for the show at our box office.

Hate Mail
 is an epistolary play something like Love Letters, with two actors reading letters and other correspondence, but it's a little wilder and more hysterically funny. It tells the story of Preston played by Bruce Eckel, a spoiled rich kid who meets his match in Dahlia played by Tricia Seeberg, an angst-filled artist. Their worlds collide when Preston sends a complaint letter that gets Dahlia fired from her job, and then there's no turning back. The play stays with their increasingly crazed correspondence as they move from hate to love, and then right back again.

The beauty of Reader's Theatre is there's no memorization!  This script-in-hand production provides actors with the opportunity to explore the character and the words without the stress of memorization or moving onstage.  But don't be fooled; this is a full-length production you'll get captured in just as easily as a the most elaborately-staged show on Broadway.
