Fright Night: Simply Spectacular!

Friends,

    When Fright Night is thought of one thinks of guts, brains, arms torn off, and every other gruel- some pictures imaginable.

    Not this fright night.  It is done with great taste depicting childhood fairy tales and authors such Little Red Riding Hood; Edgar Allen Poe, Annabel Lee; Lewis Carol, Alice in Wonderland; Wizzard of Oz; the Headless Horseman; Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol; Phantom of the Opera; and fun witches to name a few.

     There is a gently "fright" element but not one that will leave children with nightmares.  It was enjoyable as well as informative as the "tales" came alive.  And, some tales that we grew up with do have a degree of fright like Little Red Riding Hood and the big, bad wolf as well as Jacob Marley's ghost of a Christmas Carol.

     Jackie and Denver Mills and their many actors deserve a "standing ovation" for an event that had 100's of people attending.  What a gift they are to our community.

     Here are some pictures from the evening:


The ghost of Jacob Marley from a Christmas Carol


Beautiful opera from Phantom of the Opera


Edgar Alan Poe read Annabel Lee


"Double, Double, Toil and Trouble, fire burning, and caldron bubble"


Alice in Wonderland


A great show.
