Opening weekend was completely sold out!!!!

What a laugh fest! These gals are HOT!!

Come See "The REAL (Desperate) HOUSEWIVES" SOON -

You might just want to come a second time!

But don't take MY word for it - the audiences are HOWLING

and the critics RAVING...

"Carl Ritchie has trained the good people of Columbia County and vicinity to turn
up at the Lighthouse Marina every summer for a nice dinner and an hilarious evening
of theatre. I don't live anywhere near Copake Lake, and I'm hooked! Something about
arriving at that glorious lakeside on a warm summer's evening just does it for me.

And so did this show. "The REAL (Desperate) Housewives of Columbia County Musical!"
(henceforth referred to as Housewives to save my poor fingertips all that typing)
is even funnier than Ritchie's 2009 Taconic Stage hit I Know I Came In Here for 
Something [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=t7zs9ogab&et=1106866747015&s=1970&e=0016rbSw6M8Wi8umDXcxIemqiXiMam8wkii7c1Cue_X9q_DVMBsSoy22RHtZqITPRpKYyCEFq5mW77Py3PtD3RXgxh1VoVNoVhLhPnY2yLGMgAbeqjFZPyLz24YNfTldbtVJOLp6afRGHFUgtYHNab8ezkiRLe5uy6-9A53xkOYMqQ=]
- which I understand is currently on the boards in Vegas! - and boasts a splendid
cast of beautiful, talented women "of a certain age" - I like to call them "vintage,"
like a good wine that improves with age - who can sing and deliver a gag with equal
aplomb.

Ritchie has written a boffo script and lyrics and the ladies deliver the goods. 
Joanne Maurer has designed a parade of gorgeous outfits that range from refined 
to racy, with a little frumpy and silly thrown in for good measure...

Ritchie knows his actresses and has obviously tailored each role to the performer.
Dooley is a stand out as the uber-bitchy, filthy rich Melody, and her over-the-top
mannerisms make an easy target for Danny's ridicule. Either Bollinger gets all the
funniest material or she is the funniest actress of the lot, or both. Whenever she
appears you are guaranteed a guffaw, especially in her odes to plastic surgery and,
um, "plumber's butt."

Lee-Visscher turns on the charm and has them rolling in the aisles as she comes 
clean about her feelings for Johnny Depp and joins with Bollinger on a harangue 
about that impossible to eradicate invasive species, the City Folks...

Housewives ranks right up there with The Hound of the Baskervilles [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=t7zs9ogab&et=1106866747015&s=1970&e=0016rbSw6M8Wi-lyqSPv5a-zhjrgcj_OLJjA6uzL79mqm8SjQzQzTPHkMSmMkszBcGQEsokcWXIJqcOCbLghwJI6csHytPCb9qxa-OIl9CoPndCYi5GHIwlLlnrKO9h9icignRpg2N2MEPHx50JTvGmDa3U4VZXa3JQy414kWGt-SM=]
as one of the funniest shows of the season. Don't let the remote (but beautiful!)
lakeside location or the term "dinner theatre" scare you away. Find yourself a lively
dinner date and go out and have a ball! "
