Set in the early 1900’s, the orphan Jerusha Abbott finds herself with an unexpected and anonymous benefactor who will send her to college with the only requirements being that she regularly writes him of her progress and that he will never respond.  Inventing his persona to become Daddy Long Legs, she creatively and lovingly writes of her previously unimagined opportunities and her new relationships – including the intriguing Jervis Pendleton.

Don’t miss our next drive-in show, with a twist

“Backwards Broadway” at the Conejo Players is a gender-bending celebration of the Broadway musical that challenges traditional onstage gender norms. Thinking outside the box, our creative cast and crew will reinterpret some of Broadway’s best and sing a number traditionally assigned to a different gender identity. This is a unique and exciting show you won’t want to miss!

An Odyssey in Five Acts

 

The odyssey started with birth in Washington, D.C. and continued through childhood until graduation from high school in Chicago, Illinois. Then it was off to Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana for studies among other things which concluded in degrees for Engineering and Industrial Management. I guess it would be a good idea to mention that my wife Ellen and I were married during our time at Purdue, yes she also graduated from Purdue.

Phase 3 of the odyssey began in the tire industry designing factory equipment and concluded in a Plant Manager position after 13 years and relocation to North Carolina and then Pennsylvania.

The odyssey changed gears in Phase 4. I teamed with 2 other gentlemen (using the term loosely) and used other people’s money (only way to travel) to purchase an aerospace relay company with plants in Connecticut, New Jersey and South Carolina. It continued with the relay company being sold and G&H Technology in Camarillo, CA being purchased. G&H Technology was sold and 2 of us started NEA Electronics which provided restraint and release mechanisms to satellite manufacturers. Finally NEA Electronics was sold and I retired.

I met John H. through a mutual friend and learned about his activity at Conejo Players. I asked John H. if he thought if I could help build sets, he laughed and said OK. I was introduced to the set building crew and they welcomed me and made me feel very much part of the team.The set building experience has been fulfilling by working with tremendous people, turning thoughts in to physical items and having “feel goods” helping an organization function.I’m the lucky guy who gets to work, joke and laugh with a group of very special people.
