South Pasadena High School Alum to Perform in Santa Monica Repertory Theatre's "The Foreigner"
2012 SPHS graduate Sara Nichole Patterson will perform in Santa Monica Rep's "The Foreigner" on May 20.
Santa Monica Repertory Theatre presents final performances of "The Foreigner" by Larry Shue on Friday May 19 at 8 p.m. and Saturday May 2o at 4 p.m. and 8 p.m.
The comedy unfolds at a fishing lodge in rural Georgia often visited by "Froggy" LeSeuer, a British demolition expert who occasionally runs training sessions at a nearby army base. On this particular stay, Froggy has brought along a pathologically shy young man named Charlie who is overcome with fear at the thought of making conversation with strangers. So Froggy tells everyone that Charlie is from an exotic foreign country and speaks no English. The fun begins when Charlie overhears more than he should: hilarious and damaging revelations are made by everyone with the belief that Charlie doesn't understand a word of what they're saying!
