RED HERRING TO APPEAR ONSTAGE IN CARY

CARY, NC – Love triangles, notorious spies, and murder cases will prove to be a hilarious mix when the Cary Players present “Red Herring”, a full-length theatrical comedy, at the Old Cary Elementary Auditorium, 100 Dry Ave. on Wednesday, June 7-10 at 8 p.m. nightly and on June 11 at 3 p.m.  Tickets are $15 (adults) and $12 (students 18 and younger with ID and seniors 55 and older) and are available at the Herbert C. Young Community Center , Monday-Friday, noon-6 p.m. or through Ticketmaster at www.ticketmaster.com or by phone at (919) 834-4000.    

Written by Michael Hollinger and directed by Mark Zumbach, the noir play provides a light-hearted look at espionage and romance during the 1952 McCarthy era.     

“We’re looking forward to another entertaining production by the Cary Players,” said Performing Arts Coordinator Sarah Bunch.  “Whether you’re into murder mysteries or plot twists, this play has the action you’re looking for both on and off stage.”  Bunch added that the humor and subject matter are best suited for audiences 16 and older because of mature scenarios.
