Festival Theatre Opportunity
The Festival Theatre is now showing "Elizabeth Rex" in Austin Gardens. League members can get half off tickets for the Thursday, July 18 performance. The play  deals extensively with the topic of gender and the different qualities we assign to men and women.  As a female ruler in a world of men, Elizabeth believes she must deny her femininity in order to effectively lead and protect England. Complimentary lawn chairs will be set up and reserved for us. Go online and buy your tickets. Use the promo code REX19 to get the 50% discount. Contact Beverly Graham for more information.
