WABASH - WBCL welcomes "The Church Basement Ladies", a musical comedy full of wacky acting and charming tunes that will have you rolling with laughter.
This celebration of the church basement kitchen and the women who work there will entertain with two performances, April 22 at 3 and 7 p.m., and is sponsored by First Merchants Bank and Paul L. Speicher Foundation.
Inspired by the book "Growing Up Lutheran", the performance features four distinct characters and their relationships as they organize the food and the problems of a rural Minnesota church in 1964. The characters stave off potential disasters, share and debate recipes, instruct the young, keep the pastor on due course and thoroughly enjoy (while tolerating) each other. Any woman who has worked at a wedding reception, fundraiser, funeral or holiday dinner will identify with this mixture of happenings.Tickets are $12, $18 and $25. Tickets may be purchased at the box office from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, by calling 260-563-1102, or visiting www.honeywellcenter.org
