She Loves Me at the Mary Godfrey Playhouse
The Cheyenne Little Theatre Players have two venues - the Atlas Theatre on Lincolnway, and the Mary Godfrey Playhouse on Pershing.
I attended the opening night, and was disappointed in that the theatre was only about a third full.
I've never seen She Loves Me before on stage but I had seen the 1978 TV version starring Robin Ellis as Georg, David Kernan as Kodaly, and Gemma Craven as Amalia Balash.
I've mislaid my program, but Linnae Walkley-Sims plays Amalia Balash and Richard Hirsch plays Georg.
The acting ability of the actors varies - but they're all serviceable. And all of their voices are excellent. The actor who played Kodaly suffered because of course no one can compare with David Kernan! But he was smug and delivered his lines with relish.

Cheyenne city councilors approve $5.4 million land sale to Menards home improvement chain
From the Republic (Columbus, Indiana): Cheyenne city councilors approve $5.4 million land sale to Menards home improvement chain
CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Cheyenne city councilors have approved selling land to the Menards home improvement chain.
The council voted 7-3 Monday night to approve the $5.4 million deal.
The Wyoming Tribune Eagle (http://bit.ly/uzxSMK ) reported that the money will pay for improvements in the city's parks and recreation system.
Menards plans to build a store on the 24-acre plot this spring and expects to provide 200 jobs.
City Council president Mark Rinne (RIN'-ee) opposed the deal because he said the price was based on an old appraisal and because the city didn't widely advertise the sale.
Councilors who backed the sale said the city doesn't need any more parks in the area
Councilwoman Georgia Broyles said not selling the land would send a message that the city isn't business-friendly.
