EMU Theatre

Our friends over at the Lawrence Community Theatre will open a one-woman show this coming weekend called "Cups", written by Joni Sheram, directed by Annette Cook and starring Peggy Sampson. I've worked with both Annette and Peggy, so I know it must be quality.

The Lawrence Journal World should have all the info you need:

Amidst a persistent threat of inclement weather, the 3rd Annual Birdies Awards were held on Friday, September 25th, 2009 at the Stowergrass Amphitheatre in North Lawrence, Kansas.  The looming storm did not scare off an enthusiastic crowd who feasted on grilled and homemade delicacies in anticipation of the awards.
