A BIG NIGHT AT THE LITTLE THEATER!

A BIG NIGHT AT THE LITTLE THEATER!

   If you're reading this before 2pm on Sunday
you've still got time to give your Valentine an
extra special treat!
    With 97 seasons to its credit the Little
Theater of Wilkes-Barre is one of the oldest
continually running community theaters in
the United States.
     On Saturday evening my wife and I, our
son-in-law, granddaughter and her boyfriend
joined the crowd that turned out for "A Broadway
Valentine." a concert featuring songs from some
of the big name stage shows in New York.
      We went because our daughter was one of
those on stage. You might want to get there
because the show is nothing short of great!
       I shouldn't be amazed anymore. But I still
am! Our area has some fantastic talent!
       And while the show itself is well worth
attending the fact that proceeds are going
back into this iconic showplace should give
fans of live theater another great reason for
joining the audience!
        The place has been around since 1923
and is need of some upgrading. That said
it was the most comfortable theater seat I've
enjoyed, not counting those new movie 
theater recliners, in a long while. I actually
had leg room as well. Some airplane designers
might want to have a look.
        There were a couple times I wanted to
jump up on stage and join in. But, as you may
recall, this was a musical review and,
apparently,  the ability to carry a tune and
follow the notes is required.
         At least I know how to applaud!
         Hope you get to the Sunday matinee!
Your day and your NEWS will be good!
