Piedmont College presents 'The Bakers Wife' Piedmont College Theatre will present "The Baker's Wife" by Joseph Stein beginning Friday, Feb. 18 at Jenkins Theater in Demorest. Show times are 7:30 p.m., Feb. 18, 19, and 26; and 2 p.m., Feb. 20 and Feb. 27. For reservations call (706) 778-8500 extension 1225. Tickets are $7 for adults and $2 for students. Piedmont students, faculty and staff are admitted free. Written by Joseph Stein (Fiddler On The Roof) with music by Stephen Schwartz (Prince of Egypt, Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame), this musical comedy, directed by Donna James, will take you on a journey of irony and humor as it examines human pettiness and the power of forgiveness. The story takes place in Provincial France, where the bickering villagers of Concord eagerly await the arrival of their new baker, Amiable. Having been without bread for weeks, anticipation is high. Anticipation turns into astonishment when his beautiful, younger wife, Genevieve, is mistaken for his daughter. Already the object of gossip, the much-loved baker takes center stage when his wife runs off with the young, seductive Dominique. -30- |
