Last night was “opening night” for the Terlingua Las Minute Low Budget Production of Reefer Madness.
There was a reception starting an hour before show time- punch, cookies, chips, jalapeno gluten free rice flour munchies, and- of course- brownies. Given the subject matter of the play, I was wondering… but, no.
This was my first experience with LMLB productions and I was very impressed. The theater is intimate and comfortable, sight-lines are fine, the sound and lighting was professional and the show rocked.
The only problem I can foresee is that they’re gonna need a bigger building fairly quickly- last night was standing room only.
I’m not going to say much about the play except GO SEE IT! It’s funny, cute, and light… until it becomes surprisingly dramatic.
The players:
Dr. Carroll, Mrs. Lane, Detective, Policeman, Bailiff, Lawyer, D.A., and Judge- Billy Miller
Mary- Elizabeth Thompson
Bill- Troy Sergent
Jimmy- Moses Martinez
Ralph- Pablo Menudo
Blanche- Shoshana Perkins
Mae- Deena Nolan
Jack- Chris Lee
Here’s some snapshots from opening night.
