Limited Engagement of The Club at Texas Wesleyan
But the show has a big twist: All the “gentlemen” are played by women. The cast includes Cindy Almond, Jan Gleaves, Pam Goodman, Whitney Park, Connie Sanchez, Quenby Seter and Trich Zaitoon. This tongue-in-cheek production is presented by A to Z Girls Productions, LLC and Texas Wesleyan University Department of Theatre, by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc. It is only the second production of “The Club” ever produced in this area. Renee Morris is choreographer and assistant director, Neil Mowles is musical director. The show’s limited run will play July 28-30 and August 4-6 at the Thad Smotherman Theatre, located in the Law Sone Fine Arts Building, 1205 Binkley, on the campus of Texas Wesleyan University. Performances are at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, and at 3 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Tickets are $12 for adults and $10 for seniors and students (with ID) and are expected to sell quickly since the run is limited. Discounted rates are available for groups of 15 or more. Tickets can be reserved by calling (817) 531-4211. |

Come to the The Club and enjoy a musical diversion by Eve Merriam. Directed by Texas Wesleyan’s Joe A. Brown and set inside an exclusive turn-of-the-19th-century gentleman’s club, this production gives you the chance to hear what these men love – and hate – about the women in their lives, all expressed through the songs of their day.
Texas Wesleyan will hold a One-Stop-Shop event from 3 to 7 p.m. Monday, August 21, at the Burleson site where new students can apply, be accepted (if required criteria is met), be advised, and register for classes - all in one afternoon.

Representatives from the School of Education, the School of Business Administration and Professional Programs, the School of Arts & Sciences, Admissions, Advising, and Financial Aid will be there to provide information. Refreshments will be served. For more information, visit 
Connie Whitt-Lambert, associate professor of theatre and chair of the theatre arts department, was one of two Texas playwrights invited to attend Edward Albee's Great Plains Theatre Conference in Omaha, Nebraska in June. Her play Second Coming was selected by the conference for presentation by the Nebraska Repertory Theatre. Scenes from her original script were presented for a panel of respondents and an audience of fellow playwrights. Also in the audience were producers from across the country, three of whom have already contacted her about producing the script. While at the conference, Whitt-Lambert also participated in a master class in playwriting with Edward Albee, best known for Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, as well as panel discussions and presentations by Albee, Arthur Kopit, Mark Lamos, Mac Wellman, Patricia Neal, Joel Vig and playwrights from across the country.
