It's been a hectic theatre weekend, with loads of shows, auditions and casts announced!
I managed to take in two wonderful shows this weekend - The Fantasticks, which I've already raved about, and this afternoon my mom-in-law Linda and I drove to Charleston to catch Hairspray - and I'm glad we did!
It was a terrific show, loaded with incredible talent, great songs, fantastic performances and an awesome set. It was a great achievement, due in no small part to two of Huntington's finest - Danny Ray was delightful as Wilbur, and Jon Lamp killed as the devilishly handsome Link Larkin.
I couldn't stop smiling through the show - one of the best I've ever seen in Charleston, and that's saying something!
