CHAUTAUQUA PLAYHOUSE to open BAD SEED on March 12

Chautauqua Playhouse announces it next show of its 33rd season, the thriller BAD SEED by Maxwell Anderson, opening on March 12, at the Playhouse. The show will run on Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm and Sundays at 2:00 pm through April 18. All performances will be held at the Chautauqua Playhouse, 5325 Engle Road in the La Sierra Community Center in Carmichael. Admission is $17 general and $15 students, seniors, children and SARTA members.

Based on the best-selling novel by William March, the play took Broadway by storm in the 1950’s and has been filmed twice. It remains a suspenseful psychological drama, even 55 years later. Rhoda Penmark is the star child of her class and the apple of her mother's eye, every bit the perfect child. Then one of Rhoda's classmates drowns on a school field trip under strange circumstances. Unspeakable terror and a villain you’ll never forget.

Director and set designer Warren Harrison has assembled a cast including Mary Bond, Monique McKisson, Julie Bock-Betschart, Walter Thompson, Daryl Petrig, Chris Lamb, Michael Walker, Bob Nannini and Carolyn Gregory. Lauren Metzinger will be featured as “Rhoda”. Costumes are by Eileen Beaver.
