Proud Mary Theatre Company’s Sordid Lives, the Southern cult comedy play by Del Shores, will now be virtual and streaming August 14-16.

Lori Bell Guthrie is excited to be a part of her first PROUD MARY production. Recent acting highlights include AND THEN THERE WERE NONE (Emily Brent); CALENDAR GIRLS (Celia); STEEL MAGNOLIAS (Truvy); LEGALLY BLONDE (Paulette); RING OF FIRE; BEAUTY AND THE BEAST (Mrs. Potts); MEMPHIS (Mama); MUSIC MAN (Mrs. Paroo). Can’t wait to be a part of such a fun ensemble for such an outrageous show.

In this beloved play, a colorful family from a small Texas town must come to grips with the accidental death of the elderly family matriarch during a clandestine meeting in a seedy motel room with her much younger, married neighbor. The woman’s family must deal with their own demons while preparing for what could be an embarrassing funeral.
