Casa Mañana is presenting the Broadway hit, A Few Good Men, from June 5-10 and has roped in two TV/film actors to play leads: Lou Diamond Phillips and Jensen Ackles.

Lou Diamond Phillips has appeared on television shows such as "Numb3rs" and "24" and the films Brokedown Palace and Hollywood Homicide. Jensen Ackles, a Dallas native, currently stars on the CW show, Supernatural, and has appeared on Smallville, Dark Angel, Days of Our Lives and Wishbone.

As you may already know from the movie version, the show is about two Marines charged in the death of a fellow Marine at Guantanamo Bay, and the lawyer trying to cover up some of the facts. Yes, this is where the famous line, "You can't handle the truth!" originated.

Well if you can handle it (get it?), tickets can be purchased online or by calling 817-332-2272. If you needed to jog your memory, here is that clip of Mr. Ackles on Wishbone followed by a trailer of Lou Diamond Phillips' action-packed, edge-of-your-seat movie, Striking Range:

I was just wondering why you used the clip of Jensen Ackles in Wishbone. I would have thought that a more recent clip from either of the two seasons of Supernatural or maybe one from Smallville, or even Dark Angel would have been better. He was only on Wishbone for one episode and for only those few minutes that are shown in the clip. I'm sure there are other clips from his different roles that would be a better representation of his acting skills.
So that was it, just wondering about the reasoning behind including that particular clip from ten years ago.

Well, I thought it would be nice to see a clip of a show that was shot in Dallas, since Jensen Ackles is from here. Plus, Wishbone is just a cool show.
