Alma – Lead Role
Summer 1960, Wingspread Summer Theater
I spent the Summer of 1960 in Colon, Michigan where I partnered with Tad Curry and two others and leased the Wingspread Summer Theater. I was also the Business Manager of our theater production company. We produced and staged 10 shows in 10 weeks, including Summer & Smoke, when I played the lead, Alma, for the first time.
Tennessee Williams is one of my favorite authors & playwrights and Summer and Smoke was one of my favorites. It is my favorite acting role. I also directed Summer and Smoke twice.
