Rosedale Drama
Rosedale Bible College will present Cheaper by the Dozen, a play based on the
family life of two efficiency experts who applied theories of time and motion study
to parenting their many children. Adapted by Christopher Sergel from the book by
Frank Gilbreth and Ernestine Gilbreth Carey, the play provides “plenty of comedy
to keep the children entertained, with some serious undertones that are indicative
of the struggles every family experiences,” says director Christa J. Wolf.
Performances will take place March 13-15, 2015 in the RBC chapel building. Buy
