Second Night, Another Success

"The Shine from Dead Man's Bottom," a hillbilly comedy, completed its second night of a two-night run at the beautiful Paramount Theatre in Goldsboro, North Carolina, last night.  The audience, somewhat larger than the one which attended opening night, was enthusiastic and laughed in all of the right places.    One of the cast members remarked to me after the play that the audience's enthusiasm was instrumental in energizing the cast and making the presentation so successful.

The play was performed by the Spotlight Theatre Company under the direction of Janelle Donovan.  As the person who penned the original script, I could not have been happier with the overall production.  It was a thrill to see the fictional residents of Dead Man's Bottom come to life and strut their stuff across the stage in such a grand manner.

Thank you Janelle and the Spotlight players for doing such an exceptional job with the material and for  giving this old man a week that he will always treasure and remember!

My very best to you all!
