SOUTH FALLSBURG, NY — The Sullivan County Dramatic Workshop (SCDW) will continue its 2009 season with Billy VanZandt and Jane Milmore’s farce, “What the Rabbi Saw,” at the Rivoli Theatre starting on Thursday, June 11.

Under the direction of Bunny Woloszczak of Hurleyville, the troupe of actors includes Ed Berens of Monticello, Albee Bockman of Hurleyville, Leonard DeDuke of Equinunk, PA, Megan Grieco of Rock Hill, Wayne Kreuscher of New Paltz, Ellen Pavloff of Kerhonksen, Petra Santiago of Woodridge, Matthew Side of Mongaup Valley, Lonnie Smith of Livingston Manor and Heather Strauss of Rock Hill. The technical director is Jim Schmidt of Hurleyville and Rosalie Siciliano of Grahamsville is the stage manager.
