Last Rites cast onstage at Waterfront South Theatre

There have been so many wonderful moments in the past month. From the sidewalk to the seats, the railings leading up to the third floor, many a moment has occurred that leads us all to celebrate...and...express constant thanks. Something happened on Saturday that brought it to the next level. After spending the morning with many others putting down the final top pieces on the stage the cast began to arrive for their afternoon rehearsal. Then...the magic really happened. For the first time ever I watched actors working on the new stage. Seeing and hearing them made me realize that this rebirth of the corner, all started from the pages of my play was now coming full circle. My grandparents and the other characters in the play were bringing the Camden of 4th and Jasper circa 1967 into 2010 right before my eyes. When you come to see Last Rites starting September 10th the lights will go down as the show begins. When they come up, time has gone back forty years and you, sitting in your seat in the old Walt's Cafe are there to witness it....right where it happened. Angels continue to land....
