Friendly Hour Press Release
Multi-award-winning local LA playwright Tom Jacobson, the inventive mind behind The Road Theatre Company’s smash hit productions Tainted Blood, Bunbury, and Ouroboros, returns home to The Road’s stage next month to unveil the latest progeny of his quirky and wonderfully original imagination. Based on the actual minutes of a women’s club called THE FRIENDLY HOUR, formed in rural South Dakota in 1934, this poignant comedy charts 70 years of personal and national history, from skinning skunks and julebukking when the tale begins, to restoring the native prairie in the new millennium. Join these fascinating women as they laugh, cry, navigate the difficult changes in their relationships, and share their lives at their “friendly” monthly gathering.
Directed by Mark Bringelson (Ouroboros), THE FRIENDLY HOUR is set to open on Friday, Sept. 12 and play through Saturday, Nov. 1 at The Road Theatre, located within the historic Lankershim Arts Center in the NoHo Arts District of North Hollywood. Performances are Friday and Saturdays at 8:00pm and Sunday matinees at 2:00pm.
