9/6/1936

Our holiday collaboration with Camas Antiques At the height of the Great Depression, the people faced down an age of prosperity catapulted blithely into an age of despair, and a smile cost only a penny. The absurdity of the American dream was painfully evident for the first time, and no comedy of this era quite managed to capture and then totally GOOF on that moment quite like MY MAN GODFREY. A pixelated socialite, Irene, (the endlessly charming Carol Lombard) has a chance meeting with a “forgotten man” named Godfrey (William Powell). Charmed by his quick wit and smart mouth, Irene adopts Godfrey as the new family butler, and the ensuing class farce is a laff riot of incisive commentary, absurdity and romance. Both a product of its era, and a timeless classic about the inherent insanity of the rich, MY MAN GODFREY set a high water mark in the world of screwball comedies. Don’t miss this comedic cocktail of stellar talent, clever writing, and anti-social behavior! (Zane Gordon-Bouzard) Saturday, December 14, 1 PM. Tickets $7 on sale November 14
