The Francis Marion University Theatre's 2015-16 winter production will be bestill - an original musical, by Keith Best. Professor Best will direct and it will be performed in the Francis Marion University Performing Arts Center in downtown Florence February 17-20, 2016.

THE STORY:

Chris Pendergrass thinks he's finally making sense of his world.  His wife, Deb, is pregnant with their first child; his mother-in-law, June, seems to be finally accepting of him; a new neighbor, Dave, seems to be a good guy; and he's found the practice of meditation thanks to the Center of Stillness and its charismatic director, Noble.  Then all of a sudden, his world turns upside down.

Deb is having odd spells.  June pops in to inform them that Deb's father is not dead, but has been cryogenically preserved and is ready to be revived. Chris's friendship with Dave starts to take an unexpected turn.  As Chris is faced with one revelation after another, he finds himself facing some difficult choices, all while still trying to quiet the mind--to be still.

Come see this brand new musical with book by D. Keith Best, music and lyrics by D. Keith Best and Brandon Goff, and art direction by Charles Jeffcoat.  You're in for a wild ride!

Note: 
bestill - an original musical contains adult situations and language.  Not recommended for anyone under the age of 16.
