Cup O’ Joe is on stage this weekend
The cast of the 2015 Fall Cup O’ Joe is looking toward the upcoming holiday season and the staging of its first Cup O’
Joe performance Nov. 19, 20 and 21. “As a group we feel we have so much to be thankful for,” said Director Laura Wil-
son. “Thanks to this community for its continued support past, present and hopefully looking to the future. We are all
grateful for the wonderful group of actors and techies, some of whom have been with us since the beginning and some
who are new, and for the chance to find unknown new windows of opportunity for performance in the coming years.”
The group is gratful to those businesses who have given in-kind donations or loaned props over the years: Lake Liquors,
Breadeaux Pizza, Theiss Shirts, Opportunity Village, CL-Tel, KGLO-KLSS and the support of the Mirror Reporter and
the Globe Gazette and the Clear Lake Chamber. Businesses who have purchased ads for promotions are also appreciated.
