Running for one more weekend at The Green Room in Newton, NC is the musical South Pacific. Book and Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II and music by Richard Rodgers.
Summary
This musical takes place during World War II on an island in, where else, the South Pacific ocean. In the story, there are a set of parallel love stories that are entangled in prejudice, and the war. I hate that I can't go into more detail otherwise I'll give things away, but you'll just have to see for yourself what has been called one of the greatest musicals in history.History
The story is based off the 1948 Pulitzer Prize winning novel Tales of the South Pacific by James A. Michener.
There have been MANY productions of this show including a recent revival in 2008 on Broadway that received five desk drama awards.

So, I know it's been a while since I last posted, but what can you do...
Well, my next project is From This Day Forward. It's a historical outdoor drama in Valdese, NC. I'm actually playing the role of Anna!
The story is about the Waldenses that came from the France/Italy area to settle in North Carolina. The play opens in the Cottian Alps with the Waldenses being threatened by the rulers that they could not worship God in the way they were. If they did, they would be killed. Later, they decided to go to America for freedom from their oppressors. The second Act focuses on the families once they are in Valdese and how they cope with their new ways of life.
To read more visit Old Colony Players' website.
From This Day Forward was written by a Valdese native named Fred Cranford and is produced by the Old Colony Players at the Old Colony Players Ampitheatre. This will be the 43rd year of this show's run, although many adaptations of the original have been produced.
The season runs every Friday and Saturday from July 9th until August 13th. Since it is an outdoor show, there may be cancellations due to rain or otherwise weather-related circumstances.
