RUSSELL – The Russell Community Theater 2016 Season closes with the riotous comedy, “Election Day,” written by Josh Tobiessen and directed by RCT volunteer Mitch Hunsley.
Veteran actor, Charissa Roe, is joined by Kristin Venters and Demetrius T. Johnson Jr., who are returning to the RCT stage after several appearances. Chris Venters is back after his debut last season, and Marc Hertel is making his RCT debut.
It’s Election Day and Adam knows his overzealous girlfriend will never forgive him if he fails to vote. What starts out as a quick trip to the polls ends up derailed thanks to Adam’s sex-starved sister, an eco-terrorist and a mayoral candidate willing to do anything for a vote. This hilarious adult comedy exposes the sometimes ugly truths about political and personal campaigns.
Performances run Tuesday through Saturday, Oct. 18 to 22 at the RCT Playhouse (Fifth and Kansas, Russell). Show time is 8 p.m. Admission is $10 or by season ticket. Election Day is produced by special arrangement with Samuel French Inc. For more information, contact RCT at 785-483-4057.
