Residents are getting ready to hit the stage for another Thompson Playhouse production.

 

This Friday and Saturday they’re performing “Rex’s Ex’s” at the Letkemann Theatre.

 

Vice President of Thompson Playhouse Coral Bennett, says it’s a continuation of last year’s play:

 

"The cousins are back. So if you were out to see The Red Velvet Cake Wars last year, this is a sequel. It is a standalone, you didn’t need to have been there last year, but it’s the fun continuing, the three cousins, a lot of our favorite characters are back and a few new ones too".

A lot of time goes into putting on a play. Bennett says they’ve been preparing for several months:

 

"The scripts come in once we agree on a play to perform. Rehearsals start usually in September and we rehearse every Monday night, and then the week before the play it’s every single night".

 

Tickets are $15 with half of the proceeds going to the RD Parker drama program.
