A busy time at the theatre!

Wow, so much stuff going on! We have just opened the first show of Season 17 at Williamston Theatre, On The Market by Jason Odell Williams. It’s a ton of fun, and very sweet. Getting terrific audience responses, with lots of laughs but also some beautiful emotional responses and people coming out very moved.

Pictured: Yolanda Davis, Patrick Loos, Brian Sage, Dani Cochrane. Costumes by Karen Kangas-Preston, Set by Kirk Domer, Props and Set Dressing by Michelle Raymond, Lighting by Eric Van Tassell, Sound by Brian Cole. Stage Management by Stefanie Din, Adam Kruger and Rylan Houle.

Coming up on Sunday October 2nd we have a play reading of a terrific piece called The Mouth of the South by Allison Gregory. A funny and fascinating play about the real life Martha Mitchell, famous Watergate whistleblower!

On October 16th we have a great collaboration with Michigan State University: an MFA Grad Student Showcase Performance! This beautiful musical called Love, Linda; The Life of Mrs. Cole Porter tells the story of Linda Lee Thomas, whose marriage to Cole Porter, who was gay, inspired some of the greatest songs of all time.

Then for the first time ever, we are having a night of Stand Up Comedy at Williamston Theatre! Hosted by popular Lansing-based comedian Louis D. Michael, this evening with 5 different Michigan comics will be a fun time! Come have some beer, some wine, and some laughs!

So, life is busy, but good. I’m super grateful to be able to do what I do with some terrific people. I hope you’re all doing well, and you can join us for some fun in Williamston this fall!

  1. Whew!!! So much happening! I am out of breath just reading all upcoming activities… can only imagine how you all are managing…but very much looking forward to it!
    (OH! One question: the “Love,Linda” is listed as Sunday, Oct 16….Seems a bit of error. Am I correct?)
