Newnan Theatre Announces "Family Reunion Potluck Murder Mystery"
Theaters as well as novelists keep on coming up with new kinds of murder mysteries. Here is the latest one I have heard of, which is presented by our own Newnan Theatre here in Coweta County -- the county where anything can happen!! Here is the Theatre's Publicity Director Dianne Olsen discussion of it: Come join the Newnan Community Theatre Company for their first Family Reunion! It is a potluck murder mystery! The story is as follows: Scott Smith (known to the family as Great Scott), the patriarch of the Smith family (and holder of the family fortune), has called a reunion in order to make final changes to his will before he passes on. Everyone in the family feels they have a claim to the money. Each member wants to discredit the others in order to increase their own inheritance. Some people will stop at nothing to get that money...even murder! The event will be held on June 20th. Doors open at 6:30. Here's how it works. During the reunion, you (and your team if you have one) will follow the cast members around the gathering, listening to private conversations. You find clues, search for evidence, and try to solve the crime. You'll be assigned a place on the family tree (we're all related!). Participants are encouraged to come and act as their character. Just like many family reunions, participants are to bring a dish. Tickets are $10 each ($20 if you would like a commemorative t-shirt), and must be purchased in advance. To purchase tickets visit the theatre's website at newnantheatre.com or call (770) 683-6282. Newnan Community Theatre Company is located at 24 1st Avenue in downtown Newnan.

In Backyard Kids Theatre Production of Cinderella On June 13 & 14
Lisa Sunderman McCauley, the General Manager of the Fayette-based Backyard Kids Theatre, has announced that there will be two Coweta County students involved in the Theatre's production of Cinderella next month. Abby Mortensen, a fifth grade student at Cannongate Elementary School, will be playing the role of the cloth merchant and will be among those cast members singing solos. Kelsi Adams, a 17 year old student at Northgate High School will be serving on the Creative Team as the Make-Up & Hair Co-ordinator. The idea of kids putting on their own theatrical production was formed by Paige McCauley, Camille Edwards, and Chase Thomaston and is supported by their parents. Consequently this theatrical troupe is organized, managed, and supervised by the McCauley, Edward, and Thomaston families. Its mission is to allow high school and middle school students to use their creativity in directing, casting, acting, and choreographing the shows themselves. It also provides opportunities for talented middle school performers to take parts that they usually would not be permitted to take due to their age. Additional information can be found on their website http://backyardkidstheatre.org. The website carries this announcement about their next show, Cinderella: Music by Richard Rodgers Books and Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II Adapted for the Stage by Tom Briggs From the Teleplay by Robert L.

The Place By Coweta Author Bart Gibson Is Published
Bart Gibson has lived in Coweta County for some time -- first in Moreland and now in Newnan -- but his roots are in Meriwether County, where he can trace his ancestors all the way back to the original settlers there. It was the knowledge of, and influence of, these ancestors that eventually led him to write a novel of the rural South which is set in a sort of fictionalized Meriwether County during the close of World War II. Gibson dedicates this novel, The Place, to all of his extended family members who have served in the military, but especially to his great-uncles who fought in World War II and served as the inspiration for the story. Its publication now brings to four the total of known books published by Coweta authors so far this year. Bart Gibson is the newest member of the Coweta Writers Group and the most recent example of the proliferation of new authors in Coweta County. His book can be purchased from Scotts Book Store on the Courthouse Square in downtown Newnan or it can be checked out of the Newnan Library on Hospital Road (which is now called the A. Mitchell Powell, Jr. Public Library). Announcements are expected soon about articles, reviews, and book signings for The Place.

[Coweta Arts Tidbits] Newnan Theatre to Perform "Lucky Stiff"
Coweta Arts Tidbits The Successor To Newnan-Coweta Arts Council News Releases Composed By: Forrest W. Schultz 770-583-3258 schultz_forrest@yahoo.com May 17, 2009 Newnan Theatre's Performance of Lucky Stiff Announced
One way to have fun in a story is with the will of an eccentric testator. The Newnan Theatre's next performance involves this concept, according to this release from their publicity director Dianne Olson.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Newnan Community Theatre Company Contact: Dianne Olsen, 770-683-6282, nctc@numail.org Wacky Comedy Up Next at NCTC Newnan Community Theatre Company's 2009 Season continues on May 22nd with the opening of the musical comedy Lucky Stiff. Lonely shoe salesman Harry Witherspoon (portrayed by NCTC newcomer Robbie Kirkland) finds out he has inherited $6 million from a distant uncle he's never met. Of course there's a catch – he must take his dead uncle (portrayed by John Chappell, the lucky stiff) on one last adventure to Monte Carlo. If Harry doesn't follow the terms of the will, the money will go to Uncle Anthony's favorite charity, the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn. Harry is followed by Annabel Glick (Heather Hyde), a dog lover who is watching Harry's every move. In Monte Carlo, Luigi Gaudi, a flashy Italian portrayed by Jamie French, volunteers to be Harry and Anthony's tour guide. Annabel and Harry aren't the only ones interested in Tony's money. Tony's mistress, Rita La Porta (Sarah Jordan), and her brother, Vinnie Di Ruzzio (Sam Gentry), are also following Harry and Tony. This zany comedy was written by Lynn Ahrens with music by Stephen Flaherty. It's being directed by Tony Peregoy. There are numerous song and dance numbers as we go along with Harry and Uncle Tony's adventures in Monte Carlo. The show was choreographed by Rachael Shaw. This is Tony Peregoy's directorial debut at NCTC. His theatre career began 12 years ago as a stagehand. Since then he has been building and painting sets, auditioning for roles, teaching acting, and directing shows. Peregoy has appeared in over a dozen plays and has directed several plays for a variety of community theatres. Peregoy lives in Alabama and works in Newnan. Lucky Stiff has given two families the opportunity to volunteer at the theatre together. Along with Sam Gentry as Vinnie, the cast includes Sam's wife, Renee, as Mrs. Loomis; and their daughter, Kelsey Gentry as a bellhop. Their son, Wyatt, is helping in the light booth. Diana Kline (the nurse) and her daughter, Heather Hyde (Annabel), have been long-time NCTC actors. However, this is the first time the mother-daughter duo have appeared in the same show. The cast is a mixture of newcomers and NCTC long-time favorites. Matthew Bailey returns to the NCTC stage as a leper. Newcomers include Susan Perkins (Miss Thorsby), Chip Saunders (waiter), Kim Ham (landlady), and Jimmy Johnson (solicitor). Additional cast members in the show are Meghan Hubbell (Dominique), Megan Martin (French maid), and Kim Marshall (nun). The theatre is proud to announce the completion of the installation of an air conditioning and heating system on the main stage. Thanks to Jason and Hollie Schmidt of Horizon Heating & Air of Newnan (horizonheating.net), you can enjoy Lucky Stiff in air conditioned comfort. May 22nd, opening night, is Free Popcorn Night. Lucky Stiff is scheduled for six performances. Show dates are May 22, 23, 24, 29, 30, and 31. Show times on Friday and Saturday evenings are 8:00 pm and 2:30 on Sundays. The cost to attend the show is $15 for adults, $12 for seniors (55+) and students, and $10 for children (12 and under). Lucky Stiff is rated PG-13. Tickets may be purchased from the theatre's website (newnantheatre.com). You can also make a reservation by calling the theatre at (770) 683-6282 or emailing NCTC at nctc@numail.org.

[Coweta Arts Tidbits] Holly Moulder Wins Eric Hoffer Award; Book To Be Made Into a Movie
Coweta Arts Tidbits The Successor To Newnan-Coweta Arts Council News Releases Composed By: Forrest W. Schultz 770-583-3258 May 14, 2009 Holly Moulder YA Novel Wins an Eric Hoffer 2009 Award
Cord Of Three Strands To Be Made Into A Movie
Coweta author (and former school teacher) Holly Moulder is a very busy woman these days: she has been speaking to schools all over Georgia and nearby states about her first two books. There has been an especial interest in her first one (published in 2007), Eyes Of The Calusa, in the state of Florida because that is where the Calusa tribe used to live, and no one had written a novel about them prior to Moulder's book.
Moulder has just announced two triumphs in regard to her second book, published last year, A Cord Of Three Strands. The book won first runner up in the Young Adult category of the 2009 Eric Hoffer Awards for Short Prose and Independent Books. (See the announcement: http://www.hofferaward.com/HAbookwinners..html#young.) This permits her to put a nice shiny gold sticker on the cover and this plaudit (from The US Review), on her website (www.WhitePelicanPress.com):
A Cord of Three Strands, Holly Moulder, White Pelican Press - In 1838 America, two lives intersect. John, a thirteen-year old, crippled Cherokee boy, is torn between his responsibility to The People as their new medicine man and helping a new friend in her desperate run toward freedom. Annie is a twelve-year old runaway slave traveling the Underground Railroad. How do a wooden horse, the "world's most learned pig," and a young lawyer named Abraham Lincoln figure into their lives? This historical fiction account moves the reader through a variety of experiences including Cherokee customs and medicine, plantation life of a slave, steamboat travel, and the dangers along the Underground Railroad. Moulder has done an excellent job incorporating vast amounts of detail into a compelling story that shows there are always at least two sides to any account. --http://www.theusreview.com/ The second triumph is that the book is being made into a movie by Back Fence Productions, owned by Terry Chase Chenowith, who recently moved to Coweta County. The screenplay is now being written and the casting is beginning. Holly Moulder is a member of the Florida Publishers Association and of the Coweta Writers Group. She is one of an ever growing number of Coweta authors who are experiencing the excitement of having their first book published, which has caused such a burgeoning of book publishing here that Coweta authors are now having books published at the rate of one book per month!

Coweta Arts Tidbits The Successor To Newnan-Coweta Arts Council News Releases Composed By: Forrest W. Schultz 770-583-3258 May 9, 2009 Westerns Author "Buddy" Simmons Publishes Two Novels:
Fighting Skypilot and Fugitive's Revenge
George "Buddy Simmons" of Newnan has had various avocations in his long life, one of the most enjoyable being the writing of Westerns. He has had several Western short stories published in the Louis L'Amour Magazine and was about to have his two Western novels published by the same press when he discovered to his horror that the Editor had died and the publishing company consequently had gone out of business. Then, before he recovered from that shock he himself almost died from several heart attacks, which made him expedite his plans to get the novels published elsewhere while he was still among the living. His experience provides a good illustration of the fact that sometimes the adventures in getting a book published are as interesting as the adventures in the story in the book!
His two books were published recently as electronic books, which will later switch to print. They are available by visiting this part of the Tercoe website: http://www.tercoe.com/author-buddy-simmons.html.
One of the stories, Fighting Skypilot, features Jake Picket, ex-gunfighter turned Skypilot (a Preacher) who uses his guns to save the home of a widow and her son, thereby providing a very humerous and spellbinding account of justice in the old west. The second novel Fugitive's Revenge, is described in this way on the Tercoe site: "Eighteen year old Roy Buttress is the last survivor of the Buttress/Doaks feud. Tired of the killing, he moves to Alabama seeking peace, but his whereabouts are discovered. His fight to survive and his retaliation make for a sometimes hair-raising story." Ever more members of the Coweta Writers Group are enjoying the experience of getting their first book published. "Buddy" Simmons is the most recent example. |

(Book Is In Enslow Publishers Authors Teens Love Series)
Coweta author Kimberly Campbell has ended her sabbatical and resumed her writing of the biographies in the Authors Teens Love Series under her contract with Enslow Publishers. Her first book in the contract was the biography of Richard Peck which was published in 2007. She recently had the second one published (earlier this Year), the biography of Lois Duncan. She is quite pleased with the result and especially with how helpful Mrs. Duncan was.
Before she writes another biograhy in the Enslow series, she plans to finish a novel, probably later this year, which has been in progress for some time. She has not yet revealed which children's author will be the subject of her next biography. Information on Campbell and her other writings (mainly articles) and her awards can be found on her website www.kimberlycampell.net. Campbell is a member of The Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI) and of The Coweta Writers Group (CWG). In 2006, I was offered my first book contract by Enslow Publishers to write the biography of Newbery author Richard Peck, for their Authors Teens Love series. I recently finished a second book for Enslow (the biography of Lois Duncan) and it was published this year! Mrs. Duncan was super helpful with the project and I cannot thank her enough. I've been on a brief writing hiatus, but hope to return to the keyboard soon. Fiction is my first love, so this summer (2009), I hope to focus on finishing a novel-in-progress. |
