Pistarckle to Stage Susan Hunter Comedy ‘Going To Come Back’

Pistarckle Theater

“Going To Come Back” is a sequel to a Susan Hunter comedy called “Catch and Keep,” which was presented during Pistarckle’s 2017-2018 season, directed by Frank Bartolucci. There will be seven performances of the play in May at the Pistarckle Theater in Tillett Gardens.

One year after inheriting The Catch & Keep, an old St. Thomas Manor Home that was turned into a guest house, the audience returns to find Nevilina, a sage island woman, still cheerfully helping Bo run things.  Bo has had quite a year, missing her old friend and life, while learning how to fit in and get things done — island style.

As they prepare for a wedding in the guest house garden, they are hit with a couple of nature’s tropical surprises… a small earthquake to really shake things up and the news a big storm is headed for the island.

But more urgently… they are running out of time to renew Bo’s old car’s inspection sticker, and a mouse shows that he likes cake. A lot.

Their guests’ misguided agendas and learning why the Catch & Keep has had its young ghost for several generations adds to the melee of a few days of vacation in Paradise.

Welcome to the Catch & Keep, where everyone is just… for a bit… goin’ ta come back.
