2021 Season

Hello Playhouse Fans! 

I know that it seems like a minute to have received anything from the Playhouse, but it has been quiet on our end.  With the pandemic and our state's regulations we are making the best of these times as we can.  We miss live theater and our audience members! 

With all that being said, we are still going to hold our Gala January 16th at 7:00 p.m. We will be observing whatever state regulations  will be in effect at that time. There will be an online "attendance" option so save the date and stay tuned for more details!

Congratulations to the directors for the 2021 Season! (of course everything is dependent on Pandemic Regulations, but we are hoping we will be able to have a 2021 Full Season)

Some updates for the Playhouse due to COVID-19

I have been putting this off.. I didn't want to type it, I didn't want to say it, and I hate absolutely hate that I am having to!!

Some updates for the Playhouse due to COVID-19....

* We had to cancel our second show of the season, The Best of Everything directed by Mari Pankratz, the cast and crew was above ready to get this show on the road, and it was cancelled. (Maybe next season, it could be our season opener.....Heart Breaking!! 💔💔💔

* Aida was in full swing with having just cast their show and having script pick up and getting their rehearsal schedule in full swing, just to have their show postponed until September.** once the COVID-19 is put behind us, their rehearsals will start all over!!!! Stupid COVID-19..

*Beyond the Horizon may also be a next season show**

* This last one kills me, with the unknown of where this is going, the predictions of when the worst will hit, the having to let people know, the cancellation of school, we are sad to say that we will not be doing our Youth Performing Arts Workshop this summer... it is with absolute sadness that I even have to write this...** we will be back next season for another Epic children's show!!!!

Thank you for all the support you have shown us during this season!! We will kick it off right in September with Aida directed by Doug Levy! Followed by our annual haunted house that is guaranteed to scare the living terror out of you directed by Nathan Gibbs (Yay!! He is back with us), then to close out the year with The Trial of Ebenezer directed by Christie Harkness and Tammy Dayley!!!!

Stay Safe and Social Distance Yourself!!!

Your Isolated President,
Carey Lindner!!!! 💜

Best of Everything cancellation

Dear Playhouse patrons,

With New Mexicans being urged to stay home due to the COVID-19 virus it is with a heavy heart that we have made the hard decision that The Best of Everything will not be performed.

As of right now (March 17), no changes have been made to any other shows. We will update them accordingly over the next few weeks/months if needed based on what the current public health guidelines are at those times. Please look to our Facebook page and website for further updates.

If you have any questions please email us at communityplayersofhobbs@gmail.com

Mortimer Brewster is living a happy life: he has a steady job at a prominent New York newspaper, he’s just become engaged, and he gets to visit his sweet spinster aunts to announce the engagement. Mortimer always knew that his family had a bit of a mad gene -- his brother believes himself to be Teddy Roosevelt and his great-grandfather used to scalp Indians for pleasure -- but his world is turned upside down when he realizes that his dear aunts have been poisoning lonely old men for years! When Mortimer’s maniacal brother, Jonathan. (who strangely now resembles Boris Karloff) returns on the night that the aunts were planning to bury the newest victim, Mortimer must rally to help his aunts and protect his fiancé -- all while trying to keep his own sanity. as well. An uproarious farce on plays involving murder, Arsenic and Old Lace has become a favorite amongst regional theatres throughout America.
