PSTCC MAGNOLIA “THE DININNG ROOM”

MONDAY, NOV. 30 & DEC. 2, 2009, Knoxville, TN

The Magnolia Avenue Campus Drama Club of Pellissippi State Community College presents two performances of the Pulitzer-nominated play by A. R. Gurney’s “The Dining Room,” the first one Nov. 30 and the second Dec. 2. Written in 1982, the play was a 1985 nominee for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. The story centers on family dynamics and is set entirely in a dining room, once the focal point of American family interaction. In keeping with a tradition established by its previous productions, the Drama Club is using a minimal number of actors to fill multiple roles: eight cast members portray 24 characters. Students, faculty and staff from the Magnolia Avenue Campus make up the cast. Although a Pulitzer nominee in the Drama category, the play “is very much a comedy, as well,” according to Rick Patton, an associate professor of English at the college and the play’s director. Both performances are free and open to the public. However, donations will be accepted, with all proceeds going to the Pellissippi State Foundation on behalf of the Magnolia Avenue Campus Drama Club. Both are in the Community Room of the Magnolia Avenue Campus, 1610 Magnolia Ave. The Nov. 30 presentation is at 7 p.m., and the Dec. 2 is at 2 p.m. For additional information, contact Patton at (865) 329-3134 or rpatton@pstcc.edu.

Winning over the notoriously cruel and scrutinizing audience and receiving a standing audience encouraged her to begin singing professionally. Since then, she has performed in many blues festivals in the U. S. and Europe and been invited to perform on the same bill with great blues artists such as: BB King, KoKo Taylor, Etta James, Buddy Guy, Robert Cray, Keb Mo, Kenny Neal, Bobby Rush, and many others. She was nominated for the “2008 Best Female Blues Artist” of the year by BluesBlast, and her newest CD, www.myspace.com/teenytucker | www.myspace.com/slowblindhill.
