Who's in Bed with the Butler?
by Michael Parker
Show Dates: November 7,8,9,14,15,16 2008
A California billionaire has bequeathed all of his assets to his only daughter Constance - except the 22-million-dollar yacht he wanted Josephine to have, a 25 million-dollar art collection left to Rene and some priceless antique automobiles willed to Marjorie. Constance arrives at her father's mansion with her lawyer, determined to find out who these women are and to buy them off or contest the will. The butler seems to hold the key and she learns from him that the three sultry ladies were her father's lovers. She also discovers that the yacht, the art and the cars have vanished, all having been sold to The Bimbo Corporation. Could the butler be behind the shenanigans - and is he carrying on with all of the ladies in question? Does the elderly, deaf housekeeper really have a pet rat? Can the bumbling detective hired by Constance really be so inept, linguistically as well as professionally? And why has the butler hired an actress to play his wife?

| DIRECTOR RON GRAVEMANN |
|
| Ron was happy to be asked to direct this show for two main reasons. He knew that all the “old-timers” were auditioning and he loves a funny script. His favorite directing experiences include Social Security, The Nerd, and Don’t Dress for Dinner. The cast has been great and Jackie Fix has been a pleasure to work with. Her talent and insight have been invaluable. Ron wants to thank everyone he knows, especially Karen and Sandy, for listening patiently while he talked about the show.

| ASSISTANT DIRECTOR JACKIE FIX |
|
| Jackie Fix (Assistant Director) is excited to be back at Act II with her “Jimmy Dean” friends, Beth, Debbie, and Marsha! She has been on the stage and behind it at O’Fallon Repertory Theatre, and Trinity Catholic High School’s Alumni/Student productions. Jackie also directed the O’Fallon Sesquicentennial production, “Tales From a Small Town.” She would like to thank Ron for the opportunity to work with him, and her husband, Bill, without whom she wouldn’t be nearly as silly.
