A HOMECOMING to play at the Landmark

Posted by Lydia on Nov 21, 2006 in Theatre

Here’s the press release…

Join the Landmark Players for their heartwarming Christmas Special “The Homecoming,” at 8:00 on December 1, 2, 8 and 9 as they take you back in time to Christmas Eve, 1933, in rural Virginia. “The Homecoming” was written by Earl Hamner, Jr., who became best known for his novel “Spencer’s Mountain,” which was inspired by his own childhood and formed the basis for both the film of the same name and the television series, “The Waltons.” Although known on television as The Waltons, they’re called The Spencers in the original book, which is how they’re named here.

The time is the Great Depression and the large Spencer family is struggling hard just to survive. With their father having to take the only available job a long way from home, the family is worried when their father has not arrived home from work on Christmas Eve during a snowstorm.

The production contains all of your favorite characters from the television series. As it
includes many children, the Landmark Players Youth Theater Project has utilized their camera equipment and made a mini-movie which will be shown within the play that portrays the search for their missing father. Locations for the filming included the Sutton Courthouse, St. Michael’s Church at historic Bulltown Village and Maplewood-at-Sutton. The cast consists of Taylor Armstrong, Cheryle Bailes, Jason Bookheimer, Joe Boyce, Merleen Campbell, Westley Carpenter, Cendall Cowan, Lex DeGruyl, Camma Duchaine, Romeo Duchaine, Rebecca Maher, Briar Martin, Mike Morris, Mary Plymale, Jim Raywalt, Nathan Rexroad, Steve Sanders, Joshua Summers, Adam Tanner and Kathy Walker. Technical Crew consists of Tess Morris, Kyle Allen and Justin Blankenship. The cinematographers are Kevin Carpenter and Tom Allen. Chris Allen
directed the show with help from Mitzi Morris.

Reserved seating is now available. Tickets may be reserved by calling 765-3766. All season ticket holders and advertising sponsors need to reserve their seats. Reserved tickets may be picked up and paid for at the door on the evening of the performance by 7:45. Tickets not claimed by 7:45 will be sold to the general public. When calling for your reserved seat, please give your name, the number of tickets, the date of the performance, and any special needs you may have. Ticket prices are $8.00 for adults, $6.00 for seniors and $4.00 for students. An opening night special of $20.00 for a family is offered on December 1st only.

This is being presented with special arrangement with Dramatic Publishing. For help with special seating needs/or handicapped seats call Kathy Walker at 304-765-3462.

Summer Goings On

Posted by Lydia on Jun 17, 2006 in Theatre

I’ve gotten a little behind in my updates lately, but here’s some of what’s going on.

Tonight is the last performance of I LOVE YOU, YOU’RE PERFECT, NOW CHANGE presented by the Fairmont Town & Gown players. For those of you who don’t know about this show, it’s a series of very funny musical-comedy vignettes about singlehood, dating, marriage, and aging relationships. The entire show is performed by 2 men and 2 women playing multiple parts. This show opened last weekend and shortly before that opening one of the male castmembers fell ill and director Jason A Young had to fill in at the last minute. It’s a funny and entertaining show. If you have a chance to see the last performance, do!

Showtime: 7:30 p.m. at Wallmann Hall
on the Fairmont State University campus.
