The blazing temperatures of summer means summer musical time at Lake Country Playhouse in Mineola! Lake Country Playhouse presents Suds! The Rocking 60’s Musical Soap Opera, which will run July 29, 30, 31 and August 5, 6 and 7. The show, created and written by Melinda Gilb, Steve Gunderson and Bryan Scott, features over 40 of the greatest doo wop hits of the 1960’s, all performed at the Suds Laundromat. The musical is presented by arrangements with Brent Peek Productions in New York. Directed by Kay Lamb, with music director Jeannette Peel and choreographer MarCordrie Collins, the show revolves around Cindy (played by Lanette Garza), who works at Suds but has no luck in life and love. It’s her birthday, and with the arrival of the postman things just go from bad to worse. Deciding to end it all, she is stopped by Dee Dee (Micah Graham) and Marge (Brandi Bridges), two larger than life characters that are more than meets the eye. Rounding out the cast are Micah Brooks and Jacob Hays, both playing multiple roles.

It’s a family friendly musical romp through some of the greatest songs of the 60’s, set among the backdrop of washers and dryers.
