Description

Regional premiere. Sherwood Schwartz, the original creator of the successful Gilligan's Island TV series, co-authored the book with his son and long-time collaborator Lloyd J. Schwartz, so audiences can be sure of a zany good time, complete with Gilligan fumbling any chance of a rescue! Throw in fun music and lyrics by Sherwood Schwartz's daughter and son-in-law, Hobe Juber and Laurence Juber (best known as a guitarist with Paul McCartney's group Wings), and the show is a natural for Rover Dramawerks and their "theatre off the beaten path" mission.

Pay-what-you-can preview on June 5. Matinee on June 28 will have kids' tickets for $10. Purchase tickets online or by calling 972-849-0358.

Oh, yeah - for you gas-phobic out there (a growing epidemic) we are on the DART line. Get off at Downtown Plano/15th and walk across the little park (west) and poof there ya are!
