NEON THURSDAY

at Little Theatre

Once synonymous with Henry Fonda and Jack Lemmon, “Mister Roberts” will appeal to a new generation.

A large ensemble cast tackles the comedy, based on a 1955 movie about World War II sailors battling boredom more than the enemy.

“You will probably develop by the end of the evening an affection for the cast and characters,” Review-Journal theater critic Anthony Del Valle wrote.

Tickets are $17-$20 for the 8 p.m. performance by the Las Vegas Little Theatre, 3920 Schiff Drive. Call 362-7996.
