Glen Arbor Art Association presents On Golden Pond
From staff reports
The Glen Arbor Art Association (GAAA) Readers’ Theater presents On Golden Pond, October 20-21, at 7:30 p.m. at the Glen Lake Community Reformed Church, 4902 W. MacFarlane Road in Burdickville.
Ernest Thompson’s 1979 play focuses on aging couple Ethel and Norman Thayer, who spend each summer at their home on a lake called Golden Pond. During the year the story takes place, they are visited by daughter Chelsea with her fiancé Billy Ray and his son Billy Ray Jr. The play explores the often turbulent relationship the young woman shared with her father growing up, and the difficulties faced by a couple in the twilight years of a long marriage.
On Golden Pond is directed by Ron Smith, and is presented by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc., New York. Reservations for either performance are suggested, and may be made by emailing: gaaareaderstheater@gmail.com. The production is free. The GAAA is open 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information call 231-334-6112.
