LEWISTOWN —“Jeeves in Bloom” will close out the 50th season for the Stone Arch Players with the production opening May 6 at the Theatre in the Park at Kish Park.

The peaceful English countryside may never be the same after Bertie Wooster and his unflappable valet, Jeeves, pay a visit.

What starts as a plan to pair tongue-tied, amphibian-loving Augustus Fink-Nottle and fanciful, poetry-loving Madeline Basset quickly goes awry.

Soon, Bertie is fending off Madeline’s amorous advances, reluctantly participating in an attempted burglary, and fleeing attacks from a homicidal French chef.

With the stakes this high, the solution must lie with the one and only Jeeves.

Show dates are May 6, 7, 12, 13, 14, and 19, 20, 21. Friday and Saturday shows begin at 8 p.m. Sunday performances begin at 2 p.m.

Reservations are highly recommended.

Tickets go on sale on Monday. Call the box office at 248-2224 or send an email to tickets4sap@gmail.com.
