The Lady... Back from Provincetown!
Oct. 4, 2019
We had a great time with our Spooky Family this month getting ready to send the cast of The Lady from the Village of Falling Flowers, by Tennessee Williams, off to their premiere of the newly-discovered Tennessee Williams play at the Tennessee Williams Theater Festival in Provincetown, MA. After a busy day of invited dress rehearsals and a benefit performance joined by sake and sushi, our trio made it to Provincetown energized and excited for a successful show run. We couldn't have made it happen without you! This one-of-kind production was directed, designed, and constructed by Natsu Onoda Power and featured performers Dylan Arredondo, Melissa Carter, and Jared H. Graham.
