Barefoot Productions will open it's
sixth season with an 8 p.m. production
tomorrow, Oct. 21, of the comedy Fools by
Neil Simon.
Fools is a light-hearted romantic come-
dy that will run for six performances over
two weekends, closing Oct. 30. It takes
place in the small village of Kulyenchikov,
Ukraine during the late 19th century. The
story follows the adventure of an ambi-
tious young schoolteacher who arrives in
the quaint village to begin his career as
the new schoolmaster. His first pupil is
the fair and lovely young Sophia
Zubritsky, daughter of the local doctor.
Leon (played by TimMajzlik, of Detroit) is
immediately lovestruck when he meets
Sophia (Megan Huszti of Livonia) and
therefore is eager to begin his teachings.
He soon finds that this may be harder
than it looks for the fair young maiden is
'unintelligent'. Leon soon discovers that
Sophia takes after her Pappa (Brian
Cahalan, Flat Rock) and Mamma (Bobbie
Judd, Plymouth) and the entire town of
Kulyenchikov. All who inhabit
Kulyenchikov have been under a 200-
year-old curse of stupidity placed on the
town by an ancestor of the evil Count
Gregor (Sean Randolf, Canton) and can
only be broken if Sophia marries the
Count or is taught something... anything,
byLeon.
Fools is directed by Craig A. Hane, the
company's artistic director.
Curtain time is 8 p.m. Oct. 21, 22, 28 and
29 and 2 p.m. Oct. 23 and 30 at the
