Dream Depot cast gave gift of laughter to crowd of 60-75 You just can't feel bad when you are around the Dream Depot cast; they continue to inspire and give gifts of laughter and music to crowds of local fans as they did once again Saturday evening at the VFW Hall, 411 Fairground ST, in Columbia, KY. If you can resist laughing over at least one the lines or applauding spontaneously at the extraordinary voices, then one of them will probably wind up praying with you until you see the light...but that's another play. Click on headline for story plus photo(s) By Linda Waggener CM resident theater critic and devoted Depot fan The Dream Depot crew met at Sonny's Country Cafe Saturday night, bringing together their own script and talent in a play by that title. A crowd of 60-75 enjoyed the play written and played by members of the community. A little food was sold at the cafe... (well, actually very little, as even proprietor Sonny, himself, couldn't really recommend their cooking) and so most customers just wound up purchasing bottled water. He was telling one new customer to just go on to Moore's Pool Room or out to Betty's OK Country Cooking if they really wanted some good food, that is until one of the other proprietor twins, Myrtie or Girtie, slapped him upside his "greasy cap" and reminded him that food was served at their own place of business. Perhaps the reason Sonny's Country Cafe is not on the Fortune 500 list, yet, is because he forgot to charge any of the restaurant customers for their toast and/or bottled water. He did think of finance, however, and set up the bus depot sign and charge his one bus customer, played by Debbie Bell in a character that has much potential for another play someday. She was the little old lady who toddled into the restaurant to get a ticket and paid her fare ever so slowly in coins. In the cast photo that goes with this story she is the one with her cane pointed at Sonny's head. Thinking that a talent scout was in their midst a lot of good picking and singing interspersed the lines of the play and made the time go by fast in two acts. The cast included:
The Dream Depot's next act will be at 7pmCT, December 11, 2010 for their Christmas Show, at the VFW Hall, 411 Fairground ST, Columbia, KY. This story was posted on 2010-10-24 11:08:51
