Licklog comedy a sensational production
See a photo gallery from the reception. Over the River and through the Woods to Grandmother's house we go - and there we are at the Peacock Playhouse in Hayesville watching a wonderful presentation by the Licklog Players. What a joy! What an experience! The play has lots of laughter and a few tears. Just like life, it has it all. I got involved in this play as it brought back by-gone days contrasted with today's different approach toward the older generation. And it is so real I found myself believing everything that I was seeing. This is all due to great directing by Vianne Payne and a sensational, well-rounded cast. Michael Lindsey portrays the grandson, Nick, with all the fervor of a pro. The gentle, understanding grandparents are Wayne Roshaven, Laurel Adams, Tom Payne, and Betty Rowland. Each one is believable, well-cast, and a standout in their role. I loved their approach to Trivial Pursuit and memory lane. Janice Minette as the "blind date" set up by a grandmother does a superb job in a minor role. As they say, there is no such thing as a small part. As you no doubt realize, I loved the show. Every part of it was well done and professional. The staging, the lighting, and the back stage crew all contributed to this smooth-running production. Once again, the Licklog Players have done themselves proud. They have presented the audience with fun, laughter, and an opportunity to do a little soul-searching. In these stressful economic times, if you have an interest in theater, this show should be at the top of your list of worthwhile activities. My advice is- don't miss this show!
The show runs June 6-8 with evening performances Friday and Saturday at 8 and a Sunday matinee at 2:30. The box office is open from 10-4 Monday through Friday. You can also call for tickets: 828-389-8632 or 877-691-9906. Tickets are $13 for adults and $8 for students.
