RUMORS

The success of Center Players' Spring 1997 effort was evidenced by its sell-out attendence. Neil Simon's "Rumors" recently played to standing-room-only audiences during a two-weekend run of the hit comedy. The show was staged at the downtown area's hottest coffee house, "The Cornerstone Caffe."

RUN: March 1997
