Three Fort Hays State University students have begun rehearsing their roles for the Russell Community Theater's summer show, "The Plaza Suite," which will open on July 8 and run through July 12 at the Elk's Lodge in Russell.

Charissa Roe, Russell junior, John Dumler, Russell junior, and Amanda Gates, Russell sophomore, will all perform in the production. None of them are theatre majors.

Co-directors for the production are Renelle Mooney and Kristy Nyp.

"Plaza Suite" is a comedy by Neil Simon that is told in three acts, all of which take place in a suite at the Plaza Hotel.
