Thank you all for supporting our community show, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. It was a huge hit with rave reviews — even on Islander Talk on Facebook!
A special thank-you to Slough Farm for the grant that made this production possible.
Here are just a few of the beautiful things people shared:
“You (Heather) brought energy and electricity, and that brought her (Emery”s) character into focus. In theater, almost always, you reap what you sow. The gifts you gave this week will multiply exponentially. Thanks for sharing your talents.” A note about how Heather stepped in as Tumnus on closing night.
