On Mitch’s Crossroads Cafe Part Deux

. . . and then there’s Stanley – Jeanie’s father-in-law. He’s a ninety-five year old WW II vet – a former bomber pilot – who’s gradually losing his independence.

Tyler is Alma’s son. He still lives at home, but his relationship with his mother is parasitic. He has no ambition to go to work or to school.

Bert Smith is the new cook. His character – always upbeat and positive – counterbalances Alma’s negativity. There is something magical about him. Or is it just the fact that he makes great desserts?

Ray, who rides a Harley- Davidson, is part of the highway crew. He comes into the café most days to pick up a Denver sandwich to go – and hopefully Alma!

Dr. Delilah Forbes is a professor from the archaeology department at the University of Saskatchewan who’s interested in Mammoth’s ancient history.

Add to the mix an assortment of customers – and a cheerful delivery guy – played by three actresses.

Rehearsals are going well, and we are all looking forward to “bringing it” to our audience in less than two months.
