And the thing we’ve been working the hardest on is the all original folk opera “Joe Mayer and the Town That Built Him”, written by Jody Drake (of the Blue Rose Theater at the Sharlot Hall Museum in Prescott), music by D-Squared.
The actors are kids with great talent and we feel honored to be a part of this adventure! This is a story about Joe Mayer, the founder of our fair town! More details later……………

(Added July 19,2008) Oops! Due to a casting issue, the production will be postponed until sometime in November. But check back often for any updates………..

See ya ’round town,
Don & Deb
