There are too many past performers to try and list them all without missing somebody. We’ll give you a few characters and you see how many you remember:
1. Who played Hayseed in “All Aboard?”
2. Who played Curtis Jackson in “Ducktails and Bobbysox?”
3. Who played the seven brothers in “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers?”
4. Who played King Sextimus the Silent in “Once Upon a Mattress?”
5. Who played the Four Bums in “Do You Believe in Christmas?”
To find out who played these characters, go to the library and check out the DVD.
The GTL will be doing another “run” of the all-time classic “All Aboard” on Nov. 20, 21 and 22. The play is written by hometown writers Barbara Wilson and Sandy Evans. They wrote this play 30 years ago and have updated the script to include new songs and new characters. They will be bringing back the sassy Essie and grouchy sister Maude, and a visit from their unpredictable “Mama.”
