NOW SHOWING

AT MAHONEY STATE PARK 

 

Mahoney State Park announces that KBC Productions is now presenting the comedy, "Always a Bridesmaid," at the Kountze Memorial Theater. The story is written by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, and Jamie Wooten.

The classmates include Brandy Palatas and Kathleen Smith (Papillion), Sharon Kryger (La Vista) and Melinda Mead (Plattsmouth). Brenda Jones (Louisville) and Samantha Colbert (Lincoln) complete the rest of the cast. The play is produced by KBC Productions and directed by Kevin Colbert.

Performance dates are January 24, 25, 26, 31 and February 1, 2, 7, 8, 9, 14, 15, and 16. Friday and Saturday shows are at 7:30PM and Sundays are at 2:00PM. Tickets are $10 for adults and $8 for children 12 and under. For reservations contact Mahoney State Park at 402-944-2523 ext. 7122.
