A campaigner for Joe Carr arrives with signs and his pickup truck at exactly the moment Sen. Lamar Alexander arrives in Morristown for a campaign stop via a massive bus Friday afternoon. You can see the Senator at the right side of the screen.
Early voting was taking place across the street, though so far early voting totals in Hamblen County are the lowest in the state.
My absence on this page is due to aliens, time-and-space travel, and even an evil brain. All are elements of Madeleine L'Engle's novel "A Wrinkle In Time", adapted for stage by John Glore, and the show I'm currently directing for the annual student production from Rose Center Summer Players.
The show runs for 5 performances only this week, starting Thursday night at 7 at Rose Center in Morristown.
So my 'summer vacation' has been one filled with travelling through the Universe via Einstein-Rosen Bridges, discussions with the cast about science-fiction tropes and traits, about Time and paradoxes, about science, family, tesseracts, and this endless multi-verse strewn with stars which we all call home.
And, as this is tech and production week, ending with 5 performances, I likely won't have time to get back here until next week.
If you wonder how one stages travelling via a Wormhole across hundreds of light years - well, you'll just have to come to see the show. We have a very talented cast of area students, ranging from 12 to 18 years of age who bring this show to life.
The show runs Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7 ppm, and two matinees, at 2 pm on Saturday and Sunday. Tickets are a mere $5 and can be purchased in advance by calling 423-581-4330.
