Subject: Inherit The Wind Production

I attended my first play at LTOB last evening. I am writing this today because of my experience.

It was, without a doubt, one of the most enjoyable experiences I have had in quite a long while. I have seen plays and musicals downtown, and even in Las Vegas, but your company's production of Inherit The Wind just stopped me in my tracks! It was brilliant. The acting was superb, especially the gentleman who played Mr. Drummond (forgive me, I left my program at the theater by accident). He was exceptional!!!

His counterparts were good as well, but he actually put me there with him in the courtroom. He was so into his character, that he made him seem so natural.

I guess what I am saying is, I was surprised. The set was really very good. For such a small venue, the set director’s use of space was simply great.

I will be attending future plays, but believe me, the bar has been set very, very high.

Thank you for a very enjoyable, wonderful experience.

Dave
