GI Jukebox is the 1940′s musical revue by Rick Lewis during WWII where Hollywood stars and starlets made it their duty to entertain “the boys.” It is a night at the “Stage Door Canteen” filled with some of the best music of the twentieth century. The show mimics four performers entertaining troops wearing period uniforms in this U.S.O. styled show. It is a time to go back and remember, or to imagine a time when the world was at war, and joy and comfort came through the music and whole different brand of humor. Era-appropriate tunes and medleys are crooned, warbled, or lilted, with a live musical ensemble. Spanning big band, swing and Latin… it’s a musical retrospective of an America we’ll never see again!
written by Rick Lewis produced by Jane Gray Sullivan
codirected by Pat Shull & Beverly Henderson Simes

Seeking to escape the demands of life in London, Pam fitzgerald and her brother, Roddy, an aspiring play-wright, discover a charming house in the west of England, overlooking the Irish Sea. The house, Cliff End, long empty, was purchased at a suspiciously low price from crusty Commander Brooke. The house has an unsavory reputation. fifteen years earlier a suspected murder occurred by the gnarled tree. Slowly the fitzgeralds begin to sense the evil spirit that still inhabits the house. Local visitors share the tale and stories of Mary Meredith, who once lived in the house and of the unstable Carmel, who posed for a painting that led to her destruction. With the help of Mary’s daughter, Stella, whose mysterious birth holds the key to the puzzle, and a séance, Cliff End is forced to reveal its dark secrets and ghostly truths.
directed by Jimmy Burdettewritten by Tim Kelly from the novel by Dorothy Macardle
Volunteer ApplauseNancy Blanchard
The Board of Directors at Electric City Playhouse recognizes the outstanding effort put forth by Nancy and names her Volunteer of the Month for July.
Thanks to all of our volunteers, for without your helping hands, this theatre would not be the success that it is today.
ecp needs our paTron’s assIsTance!
Plans for the new theatre have been placed on hold. New air conditioning
and lights have been installed to continue providing comfortable and
quality entertainment at Electric City Playhouse. The overwhelming costs to ECP cannot be absorbed without
financial contributions from the community. These economic times
present a challenge to all of us. If able to make a donation (any amount is appreciated), send to: PO Box 686,
Anderson, SC 29622. Thanks so much!
