Are you looking for something to chase away the February doldrums? The San Benito Stage Company has just the thing to help. Perfect for a Valentine’s date night or a girl’s night out, SBSC presents “Til Beth do Us Part” at the Hollister Veterans Memorial Hall from Feb 3-18. Beth is a comedy by the writer trio Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten. Featuring local actors, this comic romp about marriage is sure to make you laugh. Career-driven Suzannah Hayden needs a lot more help on the home front than she’s getting from her husband, Gibby. Nurturing his marriage hasn’t been the highest priority for Gibby lately, but soon he’ll wish it had been. Enter Beth Bailey, Suzannah’s newly hired assistant, a gregarious, highly motivated daughter of the South. To Suzannah’s delight, Beth explodes into the Hayden household and whips it into an organized, well-run machine. Suzannah gives Beth carte blanche to change anything in the household that “will make it run more efficiently.” And the change Beth makes is convincing Suzannah that Gibby must go!
The Stage Company is excited be able to perform the comedy at the Veterans Hall. You may be surprised to see your neighbor or an acquaintance on stage – this is the joy of community theater! This is closing weekend, only 3 shows remaining! Friday and Saturday evenings at 7 p.m., and a matinee at 2 p.m. on Saturday. The show will also have a bar and light snacks available.

It is 1927, and the mob scene is prospering in major cities across the United States. In order for the underground to reach supremacy as a unified crime faction, crime bosses from Atlantic City, New York City and Chicago have agreed to establish The Commission during a gathering known as the Atlantic City Conference. The Commission is set to be a governing body that will oversee all mob organizations in the country. Various opinions have been made known on how The Commission should be run, and who will be the boss of all bosses. Some high ranking officials are adamantly against the idea, which has led to preemptive hostility. Nonetheless, the crime bosses have agreed to conduct themselves with integrity at the conference. Nuggy Jones from Atlantic City has agreed to host the conference at his residence and place of business, the Karlton Ritz Hotel on the Boardwalk. Mobsters from the biggest families will be arriving in Atlantic City very soon.
