‘Best Little Whorehouse’ Opens Tonight In Cda

Theater

“The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas” should prove an excellent choice for the Coeur d’Alene Summer Theatre’s third show of the season.

This 1978 musical by Larry L. King, Peter Masterson and Carol Hall is a delicious mesquite-flavored morsel, based on the true story of the Chicken Ranch, a perfectly respectable Texas brothel that becomes the target of a television preacher’s ire.

It opens tonight at the North Idaho College Schuler Auditorium and continues Friday-Sunday and Aug. 14-16. Curtain’s at 8 p.m. except the Sunday matinee at 2 p.m. Tickets are $20, $14 for students, available by calling (800) 4-CDA-TIX or (208) 769-7780. , DataTimes
