TVCC presents a family fable

Special to the Review

The Trinity Valley Community College Theatre Department will be presenting “Androcles and the Lion” starting this week.

The play will be performed at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. Nov. 19, 21 and 24. There will also be performances at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 21 and 24.

The story, which is ideal for a family audience, centers around that character of Androcles (Richie Macyera). Androcles is a good hearted servant boy owned by Pantalone, (Enrique Garza) who is incredibly rich and incredibly greedy.

Isabella (Laura Choate) and Lelio (Wade Johnson) are two lovers who can’t be married because Pantalone has his greedy hands on Isabella’s dowry.

So Androcles helps Isabella escape from the burly Captain (Caleb Martin).

Androcles sees that she has forgotten her dowry and runs after her, only to realize that he has accidentally run away from Pantalone.

The scared Androcles tries to get back and stumbles upon a lion (Stephen Mercantel) who has a thorn stuck in his foot. Androcles helps the lion by pulling the thorn out and then is captured by the Captain and Pantalone.

Admission for the show is $1 for the 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. shows and $2 for the 7:30 p.m. shows.
