David Garrett’s Covering Dish – Opening Night
Someone once said, “Southern women know that it takes a village to raise a child, but it takes a tribe of southern women to raise a southern woman.” To honor the Southern women in our lives, South City Theatre dedicates their 2023-24 Season to these “steel magnolias.”
We kick off our new season with a hysterical Southern comedy, Covering Dish, scheduled for five performances: August 11, 12, 18 and 19 at 7:30 PM and August 13 at 2:30 PM. All performances are at the theatre, 2969 Pelham Parkway, Suite J, Pelham, AL 35124. Tickets can be purchased in advance at southcitytheatre.com and reservations made by calling (205) 621-2128. Advance tickets are $18 for adults, $15 for seniors (over 60) and students (under 18). Groups of 10+ receive a discount of $12 per ticket. All tickets purchased at the door are $20.
Written by local playwright, David Garrett, Covering Dish hasn’t been performed in the area in over 20 years. South City Theatre is proud to bring this gem back to the stage. The death of Great Aunt Eula Mae has thrown the five Dish sisters into a tizzy. Who stole the two-carat diamond ring that Aunt Eula Mae promised to each of them? Does it have anything to do with the son who recently got out of prison? Or maybe the undocumented immigrant hiding in the cellar? What about shenanigans at the Poultry Processing Plant? Will a séance reveal everything? If you can’t trust your family, who can you trust?
Under the direction of SCT’s Artistic Director Donna Stinson Williamson, the cast includes a talented collection of veteran performers and newcomers: Leslie Price, Sharon Morgan, Marlene Wallace, Trey Woodrow, Jess Smyly, Donna Littlepage, Katy Walker, Robin Wallace, Paul LaRussa, Mac Pearson, Scott Frazier, Genni Boatwright, Maree Jones, Brad Siegal, Alan Ashman, Jay Welborn, Amy Self, Madelyn Harbison, Michelle Vercher, Donna Williamson, and Warren Hamby.
As you walk out of this performance, you’ll swear there’s just a hint of magnolia and honeysuckle in the air. Join us for this irreverent and deliciously delightful southern romp!

Auditions for Panache
South City Theatre will be hosting auditions for Don Gordon’s Panache. The production is directed by Clay Boyce.
Auditions will be held at the theatre on February 4, 2023, from 2:00 – 4:00 PM, and February 5, 2023, from 11:00 – 1:00 PM.
What could possibly have motivated Kathleen Trafalgar to get into her Mercedes SL 450 one afternoon and drive to the inner city to track down a rough-edged, hard-drinking, fry cook named Harry Baldwin? A six by twelve-inch piece of tin issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles to anyone who pays the fee. It seems they both applied for exactly the same personalized license plate – PANACHE. Kathleen is married to a man she regards as a dashing, eloquent, Renaissance Man personified, and she wants to put it on his Bentley. Harry already has the plate on his Ford truck. For both of them this seven letter word holds special meaning. The play becomes an intellectual battle ultimately exposing the irrelevance of social status and the needs of two lonely people – an unusual love story.
All roles are available (character descriptions below). Sides are attached below.
Harry Baldwin – an artist who works nights as a fry cook, can be played anywhere from 40 – early 50s.
Kathleen Trafalgar – chic, wealthy, attractive, cultured, fashionable dresser, perfect manners, can be late 30s – late 40s.
Irwin Alcott – clean cut, fragile, scholarly, age 20.
Laura – poised, soft-spoken, her beauty is equal parts innocence and sensuality, about age 24.
Jumbo Dombroski – a large, intimidating man – tattoos, muscular, dresses and acts as if he owns the street, 40s – 60s.
Performance dates are April 14-16, 2023 and April 20-22, 2023.
