Sawdust Theatre Champagne Benefit Night

The VERY FIRST show of the 2026 season is a Champagne Benefit for the Coquille Rotary. Chef Oscar and his culinary crew at Coquille Valley Hospital Cafe will cater the event, and a silent auction will be held.

Tickets for this special showing are $25 per person. They can be purchased from Coquille Rotary Members or at the following locations:

• River Cities Realty, Inc. (541-396-5516)

“Calamity at the Coquelle Creamery” or “Udder Confusion” is set on a dairy farm in the lovely Coquelle Valley, where the evil villain Franklin Basher “that terrible masher!” works his wiles against heroine Henrietta Holstein and her hero, Ferdinand Farinsworth. Will hero foil Franklin’s dastardly paln? Will Henrietta knit one, purl two until her dreams come true?

The play was written by Cindy Robnett, Diana Amling, and Gael Berhow. It originally premiered at the theatre in 1989 and again in 2001.
