Pelican Players present "Farce of Nature" on stage at the Veterans Theater

The Pelican Players Community Theater presents the non-stop hilarity of “Farce of Nature,” penned by the noted playwriting team of Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, and Jamie Wooten, focuses on one chaotic day in the life of the Wilburns, owners of a struggling fishing lodge in the Ozarks. As in every farce, there are wild and unusual happenings, mistaken identity, frenzied confrontations, ridiculous disguises, and secrets exposed as the family deals with a Witness Protection snitch, a cop dressed as a maid, a discontented wife and outrageous unexpected guests. 

“This play is a laugh riot, and we can't wait to bring it to you," says Director Paul Ansell. “We have a terrific cast that will keep you laughing from beginning to end as they introduce you to a long-suffering wife, a scatterbrained policewoman, mobsters, a struggling actor, a ruthless businessperson … and even a visit from some unwelcome wildlife.” The assistant director is Michele Whelan, and Laurie Failing is the stage manager. The part of Wannelle is played by Carol MacAlister; D. Gene Wilburn by Wayne Keyes; Jenna by Diane Keyes; Maxie by Nina Rago; Carmine by Guy Bailey; Ty by Bob Horvath; Lola by Alesia Bischoff; Sonny by Ron Banaszak; and Roxanne by Michelle Horvath.
