Sentinel staff report–
A new comedy slated to debut in Citrus Heights on July 29 was postponed due to several of the cast and crew testing positive for COVID.
The announcement is posted on Theatre in the Heights’ website, and was also confirmed in an email update by Bill Rowland, who wrote the script for the performance. Rowland said he hopes the postponement will only be in place “for just a week,” but advised patrons to refer to the theatre’s website for updates.

As previously reported, “Strange Bedfellows” is produced locally by Rowland, who takes a page out of today’s headlines as the inspiration for his play. It is slated to feature Blake Flores as Joel Strange and Gina Wesley as Suzanne Fellows.
Set a few weeks before a presidential election, the production follows members of the press looking for a scandal and political candidates seeking election, the theatre’s website says. The play promises a “happy, romantic, and patriotic resolution to the story with lots of great music and silliness along the way.”
Performances were slated to run July 29 through August 21.
Theatre in the Heights is located at 8215 Auburn Blvd., Suite G, in Citrus Heights. Tickets can be purchased online at www.theatreintheheights.com.
