Produced by Rod and Marion Pintello, You Can’t Get There
From Here is a comical play about a small southern town and the
three women who run it, along with The Mavis Garner Bed and Breakfast,
where everyone who hits the town pothole must stay while their
car is repaired. They’re upfront about their love for the
country life, but the town has some secrets, too. When the first
reporter shows up, it’s trouble for Liz and Myrtle, but
may be a bit of romance for Ann.
The cast features seven South County stage veterans, with Rosalind
Farotte and Pat Cianci as sisters Liz and Myrtle, Amber Marince
as their great-niece who falls for the skittish reporter from
the big city, played by Amber’s real-life husband, Evan
Lange. The editor of the local paper, played by Carol Harris,
deals with the out-of-town journalists, played by Jennifer Langford
and Dale Haluza. The show is friendly and warm and -- as expected
at the Pintello Comedy Theater – funny.
The playwright, Pat Cook, has written a number of plays about
small towns and the interesting characters who live in them.
Rod Pintello says he knew he wanted to direct this comedy from
the very first reading. “Every role is a character role.
These people are interesting and wise, and innately funny, each
in her own way.”
