<font color="#0000cc" size="4"><b>“BECKY’S NEW CAR” OPENS MAY 8<br>AT
SCHENECTADY CIVIC PLAYERS</b></font><b><br><br>SCHENECTADY – Becky’s
New Car, a humorous and nimble farce by Steven Dietz, and directed by
Melissa Mason Lacijan, opens Friday, May 8, and runs through Sunday,
May 17, at Schenectady Civic Players’ 12 South Church Street playhouse
in Schenectady’s historic Stockade district.<br><br>Becky’s New
Car focuses on Becky Foster caught in middle age, middle management,
and in a middling marriage—with no prospects for change on the
horizon. Then one night a socially inept and grief-struck millionaire
stumbles into the car dealership where Becky works. Becky is offered
nothing short of a new life…and the audience is offered a chance to
ride shotgun in a way that most plays wouldn’t dare. BECKY’S NEW CAR
is a thoroughly original comedy with serious overtones, a devious and
delightful romp down the road not taken.<br><br>The seven-character
cast features Emir Geraghty (as Becky Foster), Alexander Benson (as
Chris Foster), Robin MacDuffie (as Joe Foster), Richard Michael Roe
(as Steve), Steve King (as Walter Flood), Kathryn Starczewski (as
Kensington Flood), and Robin Shrager Suitor (as Ginger).<br><br><br><font color="#0000cc" size="4">Becky’s
New Car plays Friday, Saturday and Sunday (May 8, 9, 10), and
Wednesday through Sunday (May 13 through 17). Wednesday and Thursday
curtains are at 7:30 pm; Fridays and Saturdays at 8 pm; and Sundays
are matinees only at 2:30 pm.</font><font size="4"><br><br>Tickets,
$17. Order in person at, or by phone through, Proctors box office
346-6204. Order tickets on-line at www.civicplayers.org Or call the
Playhouse 382-2081.</font><br></b><br># # # # # # # # # # #
