Last weekend Lisel and I attended our first«Tweet up» with our Twitter friends at the Kechi Playhouse in, you guessed it, Kechi Kansas. It happens it was also the first time we had ever attended one of these little community theaters. I have to say it was a lot of fun! The theater is a converted old Methodist church. The building itself was constructed in 1920 and Misty Maynard, a local theater talent, made it into the Kechi Playhouse in 1983 and has been putting on fine productions ever since. The church was a small one with about 14 pews sitting 7 to 8 persons apiece and the originals are still used today. Cozy is the best way to describe the atmosphere. Playing Saturday night, 8÷22÷2009, was«Tons Of Money». A comedy involving a scam to fake a death in the family in order to gain an inheritance. The plan goes awry from the beginning and the hapless couple end up having to fake two deaths and a live relative. When the real relative shows up it casts doubt on the whole plot from the lawyer in charge of distributing the money. It’s very funny and had us laughing all night. The show lasted about two hours and cost us a measly $ 10 each. Well worth it for the huge amount of entertainment we got.

This is a fun night out of live entertainment for $ 10 a ticket. It’s an old church and only holds maybe 70 or 80 so it’s an intimate environment and the plays are very good. If you like live theatre you’ll love this. Just go. You’ll keep coming back.
