Looks like the Moonlight Players program books for Barefoot in the Park, The Dinner Game, Much Ado About Nothing, Carousel, Babes in Toyland, Li'l Abner (and possibly others, as well as the rest of the shows for 2009?) were designed by George. 

 

(Vu: As previously mentioned by George Perez with "performance bug", he may actually appear on stage - at the very least in the audience).

Our 2008/2009 Season

Determined to provide for his family, Billy turns to crime. During a botched robbery attempt, the ill-fated lovers are parted by death.

Chicago

January 9-February 8, 2009

Chicago , the Musical! “Murder, greed, corruption, violence, exploitation, adultery and treachery--all those things we hold near and dear to our hearts." So begins the musical Chicago--and creators John Kander, Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse never back off from their bold and sinister promise. Chicago is the kiss-and-tell tale of Roxie Hart, a chorus girl who kills her lover as a career move; Billy Flynn, a sharp lawyer who turns Roxie into a celebrity; and Velma Kelly, a dancing jailbird with an ear for headlines and an eye for talent. Chicago, winner of six 1997 Tony Awards, including Best Musical Revival, is a loving look back at vaudeville, a timely satire of the justice system, and a reminder of what great theater can be.

Eugene and five other assorted enlisted men suffer under a hard nosed D.I., confront the daily "mess" served up in the mess hall, join together in a visit to a local prostitute and, generally, become Adults.

LI’L ABNER

May 8-June 7, 2009

The plot centers on the town of Dogpatch, declared the "most unnecessary town" in the U.S. and is set to be turned into a nuclear testing site until they find the interesting side effects of the baby tonic that Abner has been fed all his life by his mother, Mammy Yokum.
