The Gold Hill Theater Troupe and Gold Hill Hotel present the heart-warming Broadway comedy "Sylvia," at 8 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays, Oct. 5-20.
"Sylvia," by A.R. Gurney, is the love triangle of a man, his new dog (played by a female actress), and his jealous wife.
In the story, Greg, played by James Godwin, finds Sylvia, a street-wise stray dog played by Michele Crain, and brings her home. His wife Kate, played by Kimmie Huffman, isn't too thrilled with the idea of adding a dog to their empty nest, or sharing the affection of her husband with a mutt.
Tension increases between the couple as Greg becomes obsessed with Sylvia.
Tickets for the dinner and show are $25 (plus tip and tax), or $10 for the show only.
