In the KQEN Cultural Spotlight:

Umpqua Actor’s Community Theatre has its production of “Rounding Third”, opening on Thursday night.

In this comedy, two Little League coaches, who have conflicting views on how to coach their kids, form an uneasy alliance for the benefit of the team. A season on victories and defeats forces the two men to battle over how to lead the team. The audience becomes the team as the coaches speak directly to them about competition, character, punctuality, and the importance of wearing the right equipment.

For anyone who has ever played a sport, coached, been an enthusiastic spectator, or the parent of an athlete, this is a show not to be missed.

The production is a two-person baseball comedy starring Bob Moreland and Brian Prawitz.

“Rounding Third” is on stage Thursday through Saturday nights at 7:00 p.m. and Sundays at 2:00 p.m. through February 23rd. Tickets are $17. It is recommended for audiences age 13 and up due to mild language. Tickets can be purchased at www.uact-theatre.com, or by calling UACT at 673-2125.
