Theater One to present ‘The Fall and Rise of Dinah-mite’

Theatre One’s Readers Theatre will present Boston playwright Margie Semilof’s “ The Fall and Rise of Dinah-mite,” directed by Linda Merritt on Sunday, Nov. 19 at 2 p.m. at Mitchell Memorial Club located at 29 Elm Street.

“The Fall and Rise of Dinah-mite” depicts Boston Duck Boat captain Dinah (Dinah-mite) MacGregor as she follows her dream of performing stand-up  in the new comedy club in town. But it will take a Duckboat mutiny, two trips to city jail, a near tragedy, and a mugger with unlucky timing, for MacGregor to realize that she doesn’t need to wear a costume to be a star.

There will be a question and answer session with Semilof after the performance. Doors open at 1:30 p.m.

Tickets at the door, $10 cash only, donations for Sacred Heart Food Pantry will be collected at the door.
