We have not had a “Ladies’ Night” social gathering for quite a while, so we are inviting you and your significant other to a special Lions Club performance by the Morris Theatre Guild on Thursday, February 16th, at 7:30 P.M. at the Morris Theatre Guild.

The MTG production will be Getting Sara Married, by Sam Bobrick, directed by Damon Sloan. The story: Sara Hastings is an unmarried lawyer in her mid-thirties, much too busy to get involved in any romance. Her Aunt Martha has decided to take matters into her own hands and find her a husband. Unfortunately, Aunt Martha’s method of doing it amounts to having the prospective groom bopped over the head and brought to Sara’s apartment. Aunt Martha’s choice is Brandon Cates, a young man who handles her finances. Although Brandon is already engaged to be married, this does not deter Aunt Martha. After being bopped on the head a few times, having a temporary loss of memory and experiencing several instances of mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and a confrontation with a very angry fiancé, Brandon slowly comes to realize that Sara is really the girl for him.

We will meet at Eagle’s Hall at 6:30 P.M. on February 16th as usual for dinner, then travel to Morris Theatre Guild, 516 W. Illinois Ave. (behind We Care), for the 7:30 performance. Ticket reservations ($19/person for dinner & show, $10/person show only, if 30 or more sign up) will be available by calling Judy Miller at 942-6634. Reservations will need to be confirmed/paid by the February 2nd meeting, for both dinner and show reservations. If you can’t join us for this special performance, be sure to call for tickets to see this great show on another evening.

Getting Sara Married opens on Friday, February 10, 2012, and continues on the 11th, 12th, 17th, 18th, and 19th.
