"Star Spangled Girl" is ACU's first theatrical performance of the school year. Written by Neil Simon, "Star Spangled Girl" is a comedy involving a love triangle between a patriotic southern
girl and two leftist and politically convicted men living in San Francisco.
The play is performed by only three students: Tabitha Ray, senior theatre major from Plano; Jeremy Varner, sophomore theatre major from Abilene; and Ben McLemore, sophomore theatre and education major from Weatherford.
"The show at its heart is a comedy, but at the same time, there are so many different undercurrents and themes that root from the humor and give the show depth that you would not want to miss," said Varner.
The dinner theatre is being held at Fulks Theatre.
The play will run August 23-25, 31 and September 1, 7 to 8. The show costs $12 or is $25 with dinner. Doors open at 6:45 p.m. for dinner, and the play starts at 8 p.m.
