Join us at The Lyric for a charming stage play, The Bookstore, by Adam Szymkowicz. The future of a whimsical, almost magical bookstore is uncertain after the owner dies and leaves the shop to her niece Rachel. Rachel has a job in New York City that doesn’t pay her enough and a fiancé that won't stop calling. She doesn’t have the time or patience to run a bookstore, so when real estate magnate Max Brewer offers her more money than she can imagine, to turn the store into an apartment complex, her choice seems like a no-brainer. But as the shop works its magic on her and she gets to know the eccentric employees and clientele, she starts to wonder: can you really put a price on a beloved community bookstore?
The Bookstore is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals and is co-directed by Kate McCosh & Joelle Shenk. Starring Renee Alarid, Rebecca Bailey, Annie Bolte, Debbie Campbell, Greg Carter, Hattie Eubanks, Liam Fentress, Andy Hobin, Donna Meese, Ashlee Ramey, and Payton Williams.
Tickets: $20 (adults), $15 (student ages 7-18 or with university/college ID)
