(Sept. 28, 2017) Nearly everyone has at least one favorite song from the 1940’s – “Stormy Weather,” “All of Me,” “Blue Moon,” – so come take a Sentimental Journey with the Ocean Pines Players at St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Ocean City and hear 30 hits from what many critics call the best decade of music in modern times.
All proceeds from these shows, slated for Sept. 29 through Oct. 1, will be split between the Ocean Pines Players Youth Performing Arts Scholarship and the community service programs of St. Peter’s Lutheran Church, which include the Cold Weather Shelter, Open Kettle lunches and clothing and food drives.
A talented cast of seven will perform some favorites as well as a few songs that may not be so familiar, and the show will include the exuberant spirit, wit and humor that have come to characterize recent performances by the Ocean Pines Players. As a bonus, enjoy a pre-show serenade by Charlie (“Uke Ellington”) Flagiello, playing even more songs from the 40’s. The Players will provide complementary wine, snacks, coffee and desserts, and there may be other goodies as well.
Evening shows on Friday, Sept. 29, and Saturday, Sept. 30, begin at 7 p.m., with doors opening at 6 p.m. for pre-show entertainment and snacks. The Sunday, Oct. 1, matinee begins at 4 p.m.; doors open at 3 p.m.
Admission is $15. Save money by booking a large group in advance. All pre-registered groups of 12 or more will receive $3 off each seat. Call Judy at 410-208-6787 for reservations and questions. Seating is limited, but parking at St. Peter’s, located at 10301 Coastal Highway, is not.
The Ocean Pines Players is an all-volunteer local 501(c)3 nonprofit arts organization. Funding for this event is provided in part by the Worcester County Arts Council, Maryland State Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts, organizations dedicated to cultivating a vibrant cultural community where the arts thrive.
