Well...a busy summer and now on to the World Premiere of "Hollerwood II" by Elizabeth Orndorff. The zany characters that inhabit "Random, Kentucky" are at it again! The laughter never stops and neither does the comedic writing our own local playwright. This show opens September 23rd for THREE WEEKENDS...(tickets at www.westthill.com or 859-319-0205).
The 32nd Season of West T. Hill begins any moment and what a season it will be!
Don't miss any of it!
See you on stage, behind stage or in the audience!

history making CROWNS debuts!
Wow....we are just a day away from opening Regina Taylor's CROWNS at West T. Hill. This has been an incredible experience. The 10 ladies and 2 fellows in our play have become very dear to me and Alice (our omnipotent Stage Manager). We are ready to go....lights the lights! I am sooo excited I can hardly stand myself....but enough about me!
Forget the fact that this show is history making for our theatre and community....it is fun, wonderfully acted and an incredible stage experience!
If you had told me 2 years ago that we could pull off an all African-American play with an all African-American cast....I would have told you ... you were wishfully thinking at best!
But it is gonna happen and you don't wanna miss it!
See you on stage, behind the stage or in the audience!

one grateful director....!

A Play with "Hat-titude"...
Happy New Year all! Boy, we are really getting ready for a huge challenge here at the theatre - we are auditioning for "Crowns" this weekend. The cast is entirely African-American and we are excited about opening up this opportunity for our community. We only hope we can pull it off!
"Crowns" is a beautiful play with music and it has a great story. The play is told through the eyes of a young New York woman who goes south to visit her Aunt after some heartbreak. The ladies she comes in contact with share with her their heritage and history thru the wearing of hats. It is funny, touching, dramatic and uplifting.
I am privileged to direct it and hope that we have lots of interested folks at auditions on Sunday afternoon and Monday evening. Contact the theatre website for further info: www.westthill.com
here's hoping...
