May 25-27: Highlands Little Theatre presents Doubt by John Patrick Stanley

May 29: "What's Up Downtown?" Meeting

June 8-24: Highlands Little Theatre presents "How The Other Half Loves"
If it's laughter you're after, award-winning playwright Alan Ayckbourn has an imaginative genius for devising extraordinarily surprising and comic situations. Misinformed mischievous gossip inevitably leads to a matrimonial mix-up. The ensuing action leads to a string of misunderstandings and almost farcical events with hilarious consequences.  For tickets or more information, call (863) 382-2525 or visit www.HighlandsLittleTheatre.org.
