The Angelina College theatre department will present Charles Schulz’s beloved comic strip “Peanuts” in Clark Gesner’s classic musical “You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown” Thursday through Saturday, Nov. 19-21 at 6:30 p.m. in the Temple Theater.
On stage will be the whole gang: bossy Lucy, who is hopelessly in love with piano prodigy Schroeder, who does not give her the time of day; perfectionist Sally, who is still mocking blanket-toting Linus; Snoopy in his doghouse; and the blockhead himself, Charlie Brown, in rare form.
AC students with their student ID get in free. Tickets cost $5 for adults and $4 for seniors and children.
Actors include Joshua Robinson as Charlie Brown, MaryJo Carlton as Sally Brown, Shelby Perkinson as Lucy Van Pelt, Omar Al-Mahmeed as Snoopy, Jad O’Connor as Schroeder, and Michael Mendoza as Linus Van Pelt.
Members of the chorus are Ryan Harjo, Keren DeBose and Alexia Morones-Sekino.
Woodstocks and rabbits include Emilee Allen, Sarya Burton, Emalee Cheshire, Laycee Cheshire, Auriana Larkin, Alyssa Meier, Lilly Smith, Natalie Tucker, Caden Walker and Jamie Zepeta.
