This and That, and On Stage This Weekend

Sorry I haven't posted much this week - it's been hectic out there in the real world!

The end of July and the beginning of August are usually a time when things quiet down for community theatre, but it seems those days are behind us - several groups are holding auditions in August (more on that soon) and there are several outstanding shows taking the stage, too!

But if you're looking for a show to catch this weekend, here are several good choices:

- Box 11: Brave New Boxes - CYAC presents stories and monologues about young people July 28, 29 and 30 at the WVSU Capitol Center Theatre at 123 Summers Street in Charleston.

- The Aracoma Story - Logan State Park hosts its annual production of the romantic legend of Princess Aracoma, Boling Baker and the Shawnee People who settled in this region. The show runs Tue-Sat Nights at 8:30 p.m.

- Jenny Wiley hosts:

The Frog Prince - July 31
The Legend of Jenny Wiley - July 29 and 30

So get out there and support your local theatre!
