The next Royal Palm Players production comes with a warning label: For mature audiences only.
RPP Artistic Director Michele Strauss said the adult comedy, "You've Got Hate Mail," is edgy and not for everyone as language can get a bit rough.
But the second stage production of the Royal Palm Players season might also be its funniest. "Hate Mail" uses a modern-day premise to places its stars in motion. The wife receives an e-mail meant for the mistress and the mistress receives one meant for the wife.

Charlie Tyler starred in the opening RPP production of Vincent. Despite light crowds, Strauss said the production Leonard Nimoy's script was a great success.
"People shot to their feet every night for standing ovations in appreciation of the show," Strauss said. "Charlie Tyler's acting was, as always, superb."
