Hannah Anderson in Cast of Buena Vista University Theatre Production

2011 Oct 24

Cast members have been selected for Buena Vista University Theatre's production of Dividing the Estate to be presented Nov. 2-5 at 8 p.m. in Anderson Auditorium.

Hannah Anderson, a sophomore arts management major from Boone, plays the role of Lucille in the production.

Dr. Michael Whitlatch, professor of theatre, is the director and David Grant Walker, assistant professor of theatre, is the technical director.

The play, written by Horton Foote, tells the story of matriarch Stella Gordon who is determined not to divide her 100-year-old Texas estate, despite her family's declining wealth and the looming financial crisis. But her three children have another plan. Old resentments and sibling rivalries surface as the members of this hilariously dysfunctional family go head-to-head to see who might claim the biggest piece of the pie.
