'Dear Edwina Jr.'

Villagers Theatre's production of the musical "Dear Edwina Jr." opens tomorrow.

Thirteen year-old Edwina Spoonapple is desperate to be a part of the Kalamazoo Advice-a-palooza Festival and prove herself the equal of her talented siblings. When a talent scout from the convention visits her hometown, she introduces her musical advice giving shows live from the family garage in hopes of finding her place in the spotlight. She is helped by her older siblings, quirky friends, and neighbors. Together they set out to tackle the world's problems with hysterical numbers about everything from birthday party etiquette to the proper table settings.

The show features Jessica Kimberlin as Edwina Spoonapple, Brandon Luckenbaugh as Scott, Sierra Emery as Becky, Gina Maille as Kelli, Abigail Semsel as Lars, Abigail Pollard as Billy, Maddie Myre as Cordell, Naomi Taylor as Annie, Kevin Luck as Bobby, Melodie Richard as Katie Spoonapple; and Sophia Bulbulia, Lexi Thomas, Ruth Learn, Carmela Beitler, Rayna Richard, Jillian Huston, Felicity Howard, Samantha Biondi, Chloe Garcia, Grace LaMantia, Deanna Miller, and Sarah Stefanik as members of the ensemble. It is directed by Devin Massih.

The show runs at noon and 2 p.m. Saturdays and at 2 p.m. Sundays March 12-20. Tickets cost $10 each.
