Amana -The Old Creamery Theatre Company and Fireside Winery are once again teaming up to offer an evening of live, professional theatre coupled with a wonderful dinner. The Old Creamery's production of Educating Rita, by Willy Russell, will be performed Thursday evening, Aug. 26 at Fireside Winery, 1755 P. Ave., Marengo.

Featuring Tom Milligan and Deborah Kennedy, Educating Rita tells the story of a working class wife trying to better herself with an education and a professor whose outlook on life is bleak ...until Rita becomes his student that is. Through her, the professor learns that life can still bring surprises and sometimes the student is the better teacher. In addition to the show, Fireside Winery will be serving a delicious dinner at 6:30 p.m., prior to the 8 p.m. show. The menu consists of shrimp seafood pasta, beef medallions in De Burgo Sauce, augratin potatoes, roasted seasonal vegetables, assorted salads and
