StageWest's 'Gumshoe Rendezvous' to play one more weekend, May 18-20

There are only three more performances of StageWest Community Theatre's “Gumshoe Rendezvous,” directed by Richard Craven, at Cheney City Hall.

An evening performance on Friday, May 18 at 7:30 p.m. will be followed by two matinees on Saturday, May 19 and Sunday, May 20 at 3 p.m.

These will be the last opportunity to see StageWest's final show of the 2006-07 season and audiences who attended the past weekend's performances were treated to belly-laughs and left smiling.

If you want to find out what happens when a Bloomingdales lingerie buyer named Irene, played by Alexis Main, with a passion for fake French accents, decides to become a private investigator, “Gumshoe Rendezvous” is the show for you.

She takes a remedial surveillance class from a burned-out private investigator named Buzz Cochran, played by StageWest veteran Phil West who tries to convince her to switch to a basket-weaving class, more to her skill level, or so he thinks.

In act two, the action heats up with the addition of two more characters. Lilah, the femme-fatal or is that femme-floral, played by Patty Steen, experiments with home-grown poisons to get what she wants.

Herbie, owner and operator of the Singing Bee Telegram Company, played by Clancy Bundy, works in the office next door and helps to thwart Lilah's plans while practicing his upcoming deliveries in a bumble bee costume.

Tickets for StageWest's “Gumshoe Rendezvous” can be purchased at Bicycle Time, Copy Junction and at Owl Pharmacies in Cheney and Medical Lake for $10 each.
