Amana - Join Cindy and her guardian angels as they sing their way through more than just the spin cycle in The Old Creamery Theatre's production of Suds: The Rockin' 60's Musical Soap Opera opening on the Main Stage in Amana on Thursday, Aug. 4 at 3 p.m.

Set in a Laundromat, Suds will wash away your troubles with hit after hit from the 60's like "I Feel Good," "Chapel of Love," "Color My World," "Do You Want To Know A Secret," "Johnny Angel," "Wishin' and Hopin'" and many, many more.

Suds was created and written by Melinda Gilb, Steve Gunderson, and Bryan Scott with musical and vocal arrangements by Steve Gunderson. Sean McCall directs the Old Creamery's production of Suds with musical direction by Ben Bentler. The cast consists of Molly Hammer of Kansas City, Mo., Deborah Kennedy of East Amana, T.J. Besler of Manchester, and Jessica Bradish of Des Moines.

"The music in this show has such wide ranging appeal that all ages know it and can enjoy it," McCall said. "The cast, the storyline, the entire show is a pleasure to produce and we look forward to sharing it with our audiences. We're also excited to bring back The Old Creamery's Patsy Cline, Molly Hammer."
