Wow! I’ve just realized how long it has been since I updated this blog. In part, that’s because we at GEM Theatrics have been busy planning for the months ahead – and, boy, have we got some things going!
Fall will be a busy season for us. First, we are thrilled to bring our One-Act version of Mary G. Kron’s “My Dearest Friend” to the Morton Township Library in Mecosta, Michigan at 7pm on September 18. Then, on October 15, we celebrate the 250th Wedding Anniversary of John and Abigail Adams with a performance of the Two-Act version of “My Dearest Friend” at the Loutit District Library in Grand Haven, Michigan at 7pm. (The actual anniversary is October 25 – to get your history jones satisfied, click the “read more” link below). Both performances are FREE!

Just one week later, on October 22, we bring our signature piece, “Love Letters,” by A. R. Gurney to OLLI at Aquinas. The show begins at 1:30 pm and tickets are very reasonable, especially if you are a member! We performed there last Spring and look forward to seeing a lot of our friends there!
Finally, we are thrilled to announce that GEM Theatrics will have a new show for the new year! We’ve found a wonderful script by Canadian playwright Norm Foster entitled “Old Love”, and it will be our entry in the 2015 Lake Effect Fringe Festival at Dog Story Theater. “Old Love” tells the story of Bud and Molly, who met at a time when each was attached to others, but whose lives intersected over the years, and their relationship grew. It’s a story of romance, courtship and relationships between older adults and we love it – we think you will, too. “Old Love” has its West Michigan premier February 13 – 15, 2015, just in time for Valentine’s Day. AND, if all goes as planned, we hope to bring “Old Love” to the East side of Michigan with 11 performances at The Snug Theatre in Marine City, Michigan in July, 2015. Stay tuned for details!
