The cast and crew are ecstatic with the turnout, after the Glasstown Players first ever performance – Murder at the Banquet.
“We had a very good turnout and apart from a couple of hitches, that are to be expected in an amateur theatre production, it went pretty well,” said Myrna Jewell, the director of the show, which was presented twice on Nov. 28. “The volunteers for the food did an amazing job under the circumstances.”
The group managed to raise over $1,000 from the weekend.
Here is a list of the cast in alphabetical order:
– ‘Agatha Preakness’ – Nurhidayah Sham
– ‘Captain Wimberley’ – Anton King
– ‘Chief Carly Stanton’ – Michelle Bissonette
– ‘Claudette Pindu’ – Heather Bennett
– ‘Foster Holmes’ – Mack Mills
– ‘Jack Diamond’ – Michael Dick
– ‘Jenny Watson’ – Holly Jewers
– ‘Wanda Winters’ – Sandy O’Neil
– Wait Staff – Renee Floin, Holly Bushell, Adrian Mills Parè
– Lights and Sound – Ryan Babbitt
– Assistant Director / Producer – Rebecca Rynsoever
Jewell said the group is looking into holding another production in the future, and potentially some writing workshops as well.
They are also looking into possibly working more closely with the drama program at WDSS.
A meeting is scheduled to take place at the Jeanne Gordon Hall, upstairs at the Wallaceburg Museum on January 19 to discuss future plans.
