2004 Season January 9 - February 8: Idols of the King by Allen Crowe and Ronnie Claire Edwards This musical pays tribute to the King of Rock 'n' Roll, his legacy, his career, and his incredibly loyal fans. Many hit songs made famous by the legendary entertainer are featured in the show including Blue Suede Shoes, Heartbreak Hotel, Burning Love, Love Me Tender and Jail House Rock . Now Playing to rave reviews along the east coast, the show has had audiences clapping along, laughing and reliving those old days when rock was still American, a pair of Levi's cost four bucks and 'The Pelvis" was the King. Visit their website for more information about Ronnie Claire Edwards and Idols of The King February 13 - March 14: Natalie Needs a Nightie by Neil and Caroline Schaffner In this hilarious farce, Tommy Briggs is a young soft drink executive who is trying to get a raise. The catch? He has to convince his boss that he is married (which he isn't) and has a child (which he doesn't). Cases of mistaken identities, disappearing clothing and meddling friends make this one a must see! March 19 - April 18: Peg of My Heart by J. Hartley Manners

CONTENTS: REVIEWS A to J REVIEWS K to Q REVIEWS R to Z KIDS CORNER ... ABOUT US LINKS: RELATED ARTICLES IMAGES WWW LINKS WHY I LIKE- DRAMATIC ENTRANCE ... Early Drama Output on British TV. The 1920's to the 1950's Although arguably it wasn't until the 1950's that major theatrical productions became a staple diet for British television viewers, with the likes of Laurence Olivier and John Gielgud finally accepting the medium as a serious rostrum to present their considerable talents (see part two of this article), the theatre provided a source of programming even in television's experimental days. The first ever television play was presented by the General Electric Company's test station WGY, Schenectady, N.Y., USA. Written by J. Hartley Manners and adapted by Mortimer Stewart, The Queen's Messenger , a 40-minute transmission on a low-definition 24-line mechanical system developed by Doctor Ernst Alexanderson, was broadcast for the benefit of the television developers in the days before TV sets were commercially available. The date was September 11th 1928. Within a few short months British TV experimenter John Logie Baird presented an experimental transmission of a play from the Baird Company's studios at 133 Long Acre, London. Box and Cox was probably seen by about several dozen viewers in addition to Baird's staff, as a number of amateur constructors were known to have built their own receivers from instructions published in the quarterly magazine
