New play at LLT
“The Quality of Life” by Jane Anderson, directed by Collette Clavadetscher, will take to the stage at the Lakeside Little Theatre, January 13 to 22.

Weekday evening shows are 7:30 p.m., weekend matinees at 4 p.m. Tickets, 350 pesos, are available at lakesidelittletheatre.com and at the box office Wednesdays and Thursdays, 10 a.m. to noon during opening week and the week of the show’s run, or one hour before curtain.
