Bay Saint Louis Little Theatre Announces Dates for ‘A Bench in the Sun’
The Bay St. Louis Little Theatre presents its next season show “A Bench in the Sun” by Ron Clark. The show will open on Friday, March 28, 2025. A comedy that takes place in a retirement home. The show has been performed all over the country since 2002. Mel Brooks commented “Very wise, very moving, but most of all, very funny.”
Burt and Harold, longtime friends, live in a retirement home and spend their days on a bench in the garden bickering. Then, a once famous actress moves in, giving them something new to argue over. Their relationships change and rearrange in funny and charming ways.
The cast includes Chris Flynn, Barry Newman, and Donna Mellott. The Production crew includes Michael Schultz as director, Christian Vontoure as assistant director, and Cheryl Grace as producer. Clayton Pennylegion will manage sounds and light. Allison Hess designed the set. Bonnie Cooper is the costume curator.
The show dates and times are March 28, 29, April 4, and 5 at 8pm. Sunday matinees are March 30 and April 6 at 2pm.

Comedy and Music with Luke Null
Luke Null began performing comedy the moment he picked up a guitar in Chicago. During his stay in the Windy city he developed his signature musical comedy style, blending witty humor with catchy earworms. This unique approach garnered the attention of Lorne Michaels and earned him the chance to perform as a cast member on Saturday Night live. After a year in New York as a featured player on SNL, Luke moved to LA and is now a regular at the Hollywood Improv. He performs standup comedy at clubs and colleges across the country. In 2023, Luke released a live standup special entitled “Pretty Songs, Dirty Words” through 800 Pound Gorilla Records, now available on YouTube.
Doors open at 5:30 and show begins at 6:30. Find your tickets here!
Live from the Little Theatre – BLUES NIGHT with Johnny Sansone and John Fohl
Our buddy JD Simo had to postpone his show with us for a later date, but the show must go on!
We called on the great Johnny Sansone to take his place. Johnny has been playing the BLUES for decades in NOLA and beyond representing Louisiana’s rich musical culture. Sansone plays the guitar, accordion, and he is considered one of the best Harmonica players on earth.
He has enlisted the great Louisiana guitar hero John Fohl to join him for this special show & we haven’t forgotten about our good friends Stud Ford & Will Coppage from the Mississippi Delta to kick things off.. this duo will knock your socks off with their take on traditional Delta Blues classics and their modern way of incorporating hip hop beats, rhymes, and repetition into the Blues tradition.

Both bands will be doing full sets!
