First Adult Theatre Production Also a Hit!
Love Letters, HCAC Players' first production received great reviews for performances by Dottie Eddis and Lowell Hott in the play by A. R.Gurney that traces the lifelong correspondence of a steadfast and dutiful lawyer and a lively, unstable artist. The story of their bittersweet relationship unfolded from what is written-and what is left unsaid-in their letters. V. Lynn Moore directed the performances March 4, 5 and 6.

First Theatre Production a Hit!
About 30 folks came out to the invited dress rehearsal and 71 came on Sunday, December 12, 2010 despite the foul weather, including a group from The Potomac Center. The Grinch Box Office and Raffle total for Saturday's donations and Sundays' ticket sales was $402! Proceeds to benefit our community theater efforts came from an auction of 3 items donated by Amanda Snyder (Thank you!), a lovely stuffed Grinch, won by the Grinch's grandmother; a cute stuffed Max, won by MommaWho's neice; and finally an autographed by cast copy of the book, won by Anne Renee Livingston. Thanks to Aren Hobbie, you can see the production on YouTube! (if you can't view the embedded version below, click here.
