A Quiet January - So Far

   Sorry for the lack of posts, theatre pals - but frankly, there hasn't been much going on lately in terms of shows on stage.

   There's a lot going on behind the scenes - shows like Godspell, Ten Angry Men, Dear Edwina, Jr. and many others are busy rehearsing, building sets, making costumes and generally getting ready to take the stage - but since Christmas, there have been no shows on local stages.

   The next scheduled show is No Exit, as George Washington High School's Theatre of the Nevertheless presents the play based on the 1944 existentialist French play by Jean-Paul SartreThe play is a depiction of the afterlife in which three deceased characters are punished by being locked into a room together for eternity. It will be presented for one performance only on Jan. 10 at 7 p.m.

   So what to do in the meantime? Well, I thought I'd run a few "greatest hit" posts from early in the life of this blog. I once did a short history of some of the area's community theatre groups, so in case you missed it, I'm going to update and re-post those in hopes you can add to our knowledge about Huntington's theatrical history.

   That starts tomorrow, so watch this space!
