Sheila Kidd, Coleen Brooks, and Mary Ortwein rehearse for the upcoming Calhoun Little Theatre production of "Dearly Beloved" written by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, and Jamie Wooten of "Dearly Departed" fame. This is a southern comedy about the misadventures of the Futrelle sisters as they attempt to put on an elaborate antebellum wedding in the tradition of Gone with the Wind. Sheila Kidd portrays Twink Futrelle who desperately wants to get her boyfriend of 15 years to the altar. Coleen Brooks portrays Honey Raye Futrelle, the much-married sister who comes and goes like the wind and is ready for lucky husband number six. Mary Ortwein, the mother of the bride, is trying her level best to make this wedding an event with class, but she also holds a secret that will be a shock to her husband,(played by Tony Tankersley) and the rest of the family. "Dearly Beloved", directed by Wendell Barnes, will be presented at the Harris Arts Center in the Ratner Theater on June 4, 5, 11, 12, at 7:00 pm and on June 6 at 3:00 pm. Tickets are available at the Harris Arts Center on Wall St. in Calhoun and prices are $10 for HAC members, students, and seniors, and $12 for non members and the general public.
