Play in a Day, July 25 at 7pm #LiveAtTheLyric!

The Ozark Arts Council Presents:

Play in a Day

Saturday, July 25, 7:00PM

The Ozark Arts Council and NorthArk Drama present (…uh…well, we’re not sure yet!) performed at the Historic 1929 Lyric Theater Saturday July 25 at 7:00PM. Tickets are Pay What You Want with the promo code PWYW26!

Uh-oh, those pesky Theatre kids are at it again! Come watch a group of outrageously funny Theatre students pick a play out of a hat…and produce it in only 24 hours!

They might be familiar with the play or have never heard of it: that’s just the luck of the draw. And if they can’t memorize it in 24 hours…well, they’d better be good at improv!

Join us for the 3rd Annual Play in a Day, where high school and college students show off their acting and technical skills and attempt to build set, make costumes, design lights, memorize a full script, and more to produce  a full play. Will they be able to do it? Come see for yourself Saturday July 25 at 7pm!

To thank you for your support, they’ve decided to let you determine how much to pay for admission. Just enter the ‘Pay What You Will’ promo code, PWYW26, and your ticket price will zero out, and then you can put the amount you want to pay into the ‘Donation’ area when you’re checking out, as depicted here:

Each of the guests has an alias, the butler offers a variety of weapons, and the host is, well, dead. So whodunit? Join the iconic oddballs known as Scarlet, Plum, White, Green, Peacock and Mustard as they race to find the murderer in Boddy Manor before the body count stacks up. Based on the cult classic film and the popular board game, Clue is a madcap comedy that will keep you guessing until the final twist.

The Story

This classic comedy opens on a friendly card game in the untidy apartment of divorced Oscar Madison. And if the mess is any indication, it’s no wonder that his wife left him. Late to arrive is Felix Ungar, who has just been separated from his wife. Fastidious, depressed, and none too tense, Felix seems suicidal, but as the action unfolds, Oscar becomes the one with murder on his mind when the clean freak and the slob ultimately decide to room together. The action unfolds with hilarious results as The Odd Couple is born.
