    A LOOK AT SEASON SIXTY-SEVEN Colonial Players’ 2015-16 season will take our patrons on a journey from England to New York to Boston and from the late Victorian era to 21st-century America, using comedy, drama, and THE music to relate spellbinding tales of love, laughter, and, yes, even murder. Subscriptions for either five or seven shows will be on sale soon. We hope you will join us on our journey. ★ SEPTEMBER 4-26 The season opens with Sherlock’s Last Case, a ruefully comic send-up of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s stories about his famed English detective. This modern version is unlike anything you’ve seen about Holmes, with a jaw-dropping twist so unexpected we will ask our patrons not to reveal the secret to those who have yet to see the play. ★ OCTOBER 16-31 Side Man is a memory play told by a narrator who relates the story of his parents' relationship over four decades from the 1950s to the 1980s. It focuses on the lives of side men - musicians who made their living playing gigs with headliners on tours and in recording sessions - at a time when rock and roll was edging out jazz and big band music. Side Man won a Tony Award and was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize. Side Man contains strong language and mature themes. ★ NOVEMBER 20-DECEMBER 13 Morning's at Seven is a charming comedy set in the early 20th century and is the second in our series of classic American plays. Originally produced in 1938, it is a story of family relationships among four sisters, three husbands, and one son and his fiancée of 12 years.

  • Darlene Kay Hooley 1939–
    ★ current members ★ Darlene Kay Hooley 1939– united states representative democrat from oregon 1997– A former Oregon public schoolteacher, Darlene Hooley began a long climb in state politics in the 1970s, inspired initially by defective equipment at a local playground. Hooley served in city, county, and state government for 20 years before winning election to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1996. During her tenure in Congress, Representative Hooley has focused on identity theft and data security, education funding, affordable health care and prescription drug coverage, Image courtesy of the Member the National Guard, and veterans' health care. Darlene Olson was born on April 4, 1939, in Williston, North Dakota, to Clarence Alvin Olson and Alyce Rogers Olson. When she was eight years old, her family moved to Salem, Oregon. Darlene Olson earned a B.S. in education from Oregon State University in 1961, and pursued postgraduate work at Oregon State University and Portland State University from 1963 until 1965. She also taught reading, music, and physical education in Oregon. Darlene Olson married John Hooley, a fellow teacher, and they raised two children, Chad and Erin, before they divorced in 1997. The lack of city response to playground equipment maintenance issues at a local public park, where her son had fallen off a swing onto the asphalt, convinced Hooley to enter politics. In 1976, she was the first woman elected to the West Linn city council. Four years later, she earned a spot in the state house of representatives, where she served until 1987. In the legislature, she chaired the environmental and energy committees where she helped pass energy conservation measures, recycling legislation, and a rewrite of land use planning laws.
