The Little Theater Group Road Trip

We had a blast!! This is the group from The Little Theatre Group, who went on the road trip to Playa Hermosa and Hermosa Heights. We were treated great by the staff at Hermosa Heights and the owner, Rich. The food was good, the pool was fantastic and the beach only about 2 blocks away. Anyway, we all got up earlier than early to get on the road for this 4 or 5 hour drive and began the fun. We mostly arrived at about the same time, got our luggage loaded into the rooms, took a quick dip in the pool and then the real fun began. All of our props, techie stuff, and scenery had arrived so we all got busy putting together, organizing, putting our heads together to make it all work and Lo and Behold!

It did!!

We did a run through, grabbed a bite to eat, went over lines and discussed entries and bows a little further and before you knew it, SHOW TIME!!

Our first night went very well and we all were pleased. The second night, we played to a full house and we hit the mark!! Everyone did an outstanding job! The hob-nobbing afterwards and the pool party after that was such a great time. Lots of stress was relieved as we swam, talked about the play, had wines and bocas, and best of all - laughed! Threw our heads back at stories current and past and laughed!! Good for the soul!

Ann, Vicki and Mary. Ann is my fellow actor and director. Quite a talent, I may add! And a heck of a lot of fun to hang around with, as well!!

Vicki is my director and fab-u-lous to work with. Ann, Wayne and I are doing, "Twilight Zone". Thank you for all you did, by the way.
Mary was our techie with 3 plays in one, DVD's, CD's, and sound for each - well she had her hands full!!

I missed getting pics of Wayne, my fellow actor as well and Tom, who is with David in "Death Knocks".

Susan, our actor for "Sorry, Wrong Number".

Randy, producer and active member of the group.

Great story and great pix! Looking forward to seeing the show tomorrow night. See you! And I didn't know you had a blog - I added it to my Costa Rica blog roll.
