Curtain Up!: A Comedy

by Peter Quilter

Based on the author's earlier Respecting Your Piers, Curtain Up! is the hilarious story of five women who inherit equal shares in a dilapidated theatre and plan to bring it back to life again. They try various fund-raising schemes but their most ambitious is to hold a concert featuring local talent and a world-famous star who agrees to appear for no fee! However, their plans go awry and it's a race to keep their audience from guessing the truth of the matter. A fast-paced and very funny comedy with five great roles for women.

I'm doing this for a show, playing the role of Sharon, and it's a fun show to do with sweet, poignant moments, and some random dancing. I'm a bit biased, but I think Sharon is the most fun character of the show. ^_^
