Lighthearted 'Wally's Cafe' set for dinner theater

Green Valley Recreation and Roadrunner Productions presents "Wally's Cafe," a gag-filled comedy written by Ron Clark and Sam Bobrick, Oct. 7, 8 and 9 at Desert Hills Center, 2980 S. Camino del Sol.

The dinner theater production, catered by the Oasis Restaurant, is open to GVR members and guests. Dinner, which features a choice of chicken piccata or Wally's mother's pot roast, will be served at 6 p.m. The show begins at 7 p.m.

Tickets are $18 for GVR members and $20 for guests and are on sale at all major GVR social centers. For more information, call 625-0288 or 625-5221.

Directed by Roberta Konen, the three-act comedy stars Dolly Miller, Ted Schick and Regina Ford.

"Wally's Cafe," an appetizing comedy that dishes out the laughs, is a warm and wonderfully wacky story that begins in the 1940s. This delightful play spans the next 41 years as transplanted New Jerseyites, Wally and his wife Louise (along with a wanna-be Hollywood starlet, Janet) cook up schemes to keep Wally's Cafe surviving in the California desert.

It's rare and well done. It's great food and informal. It's Wally's Cafe.
