Wyoming County Players to present annual Winter Dessert Theater with two performances of Brian Mitchell’s ‘Squirrel Lake’

TUNKHANNOCK — The Wyoming County Players will present their annual Winter Dessert Theater at 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, March 12 and 13 at the Whipple Performing Arts Studio.

Guests can enjoy desserts and the comedy, “Squirrel Lake” by Brian Mitchell.

In a place called Squirrel Lake, you’re bound to meet a nut or two. Brothers and sisters get together to read the will of their deceased mother. A few misunderstandings with the neighbors and family relations could send this family up a tree. In the end, Squirrel Lake proves that even the unlucky in life can find happiness and contentment if they simply look for the gifts given to them.

Tickets are $15 for general admission and $12 for senior citizens and children 12 and under. They can be purchased at the Whipple Performing Arts Studio by calling 570-836-6986 or emailing kimdwhipple@frontier.com or at the door.
