Proud Mary Theatre Company will present SORDID LIVES, the classic cult comedy by Del Shores, August 12-21 as their first indoor performance in 18 months.

Shows are Thursdays-Saturdays at 8 p.m. with two Saturday matinees at the Artists Collective Spartanburg. MASK ARE REQUIRED! SEATING IS VERY LIMITED DUE TO COVID and reduced seating capacity, so reserve your tickets today. 

In this beloved cult classic 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.

Jessie Cantrell is new to the Proud Mary stage! She has loved getting to work with this great group of people! She has a BA in Theatre from Limestone College. Some of her favorite acting credits include Reno Sweeney in Anything Goes, Princess Fiona in Shrek the Musical and Euterpe in Xanadu. She has directed & choreographed at the Gaffney Little Theatre, where she was recently elected as a board member and has taught camps & classes at the Spartanburg Youth Theatre. Many thanks to Sandy and Scott!
