Art Park Players take you back to 1954 with the Tony Award Winning musical by the famed song-writing team Adler & Ross. Based on the feisty novel, 7-1/2 Cents, this hilarious battle-of- the-sexes comedy takes us all the way to Sleep Tite Pajama Factory in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, where the crazy crew of workers is on the verge of striking for a seven-and-a-half cent raise. Amidst labor troubles, love blossoms between Babe, a fiery leader of the grievance committee, and Sid, the new factory
superintendent. Being on opposing sides of the strike is only the beginning of their troubles, and with the Sleep Tite gang around you never know what will happen next!

This quirky ensemble of workers include Troy Holiman, Genny McClellan, Rusty Groos, Susan Mele, Matt Pena, Katie Lewis, Victoria Bryan, Bob Stahl, Larry Mitchell, Kimberly Westbrook, Margo Staley, Beatriz Gonzalez, Ryan Fontenot, Fred White, De’Ja Wrought, Randa Peairson, Julianne McBride, Aaron Morin, Juan Castillo, Michaelina Gonzalez, Ashley Defrancis, Laura Freeman, Markie Albertson, and Gabby Rosales; Directed by Ryan Baker and Technical Direction by Joe Piper.
