Quannapowitt Players Presents Texas-Sized Comedy "Sordid Lives"

Coming up at Quannapowitt Players of Reading from March 21 – April 5 is the Texas-sized comedy "Sordid Lives," by Del Shores. Billed as a "clever, campy and often raunchy tale," the popular story was also adapted into a 2000 movie and 2008 television series.

It tells the story of the residents of a small Texas town who are in an uproar after the elderly matriarch of the very odd Ingram family, dies during a clandestine meeting in a seedy motel room with her much younger, married neighbor by tripping over his wooden legs. Family secrets emerge and
hilarious chaos erupts as the colorful family prepares for what could be an embarrassing funeral.

Performances run from March 21 to April 5 at Quannapowitt Players on 55 Hopkins Street in Reading, Mass. Friday and Saturday evening performances begin at 8pm and the Sunday, March 30, matinee is at 2pm. Tickets are $18 general admission and $17 for students/seniors. For reservations, call
