The Moon is Halfway to Heaven is being staged by the new Theatre Players. This is the story of lifelong friends Jamie and Paul. A poignant comedy, it begins in 1928 and ends in 2010, when the two friends have reached the grand age of 82. They always meet in their special place. It’s here that they play and philosophi­se; here that Jamie tries to teach Paul that he can have more fun with girls than the Encycloped­ia Britannica; here that they go to war, recover from divorce, get drunk on their retirement; and here that they eventually face their own mortality. This story shows how the love of friendship can sometimes surpass family ties. March 20 - 25
