Shakespeare at Sweet Briar: A Midsummer Night’s Dream
One of the things I love about writing for Appomattox News is that it gives me – an introvert – a chance to get out more often. On a recent outing, I met Geoffrey Kershner and a number of the folks involved with the Endstation Theatre Company at Sweet Briar College. It was such a good experience, I planned to see as many of the group’s productions as possible during the Blue Ridge Summer Theatre Festival.
Music & Murder, Southern Style
The South is famous for many things, including its deep-fried cuisine (chicken, okra, and squirrel) and deep tradition of song (gospel, love songs, and murder ballads). If you can’t deep fry it or sing along with it, the music/foods’ Southern origins might just be called into question. With these traditions still intact, nothing can be quite as patriotically Southern as to combine these two in one event.
