Dessert Theatre

May 10, 2018

Medomak Valley High School – Waldoboro


The Medomak Valley players will present its annual Spring Dessert Theater May 11 & 12 at 7:00 and a matinee on May 12 at 2:00. This year’s show is “Southern Hospitality”, a laugh-out-loud comedy from the Futrelle Family Texas Trilogy.
The Futrelle sisters-Frankie, Twink, Honey Raye, and Rhonda Lynn-are in trouble again.  They must pull together, along with other town citizens, to save their beloved town, Fayro, from extinction.  A Connecticut based salsa manufacturing company is considering Fayro as the new location for their operation.  Company rep, Buck Strickland, is being sent to scout it out.  To impress him, Fayro citizens have organized a ‘Fayro Days’ festival, which includes a craft show, a pet costume parade, a beauty pageant, and a huge Civil War reenactment.  Can the town folk pull together to save their town and show off their Southern strength and ingenuity?  It’s a recipe for total hilarity.
The cast includes Rose Hickey, Eileen Monroy, Kalina Chazin-Knox, Emily Lupien, Hailie Brown, Joel Morin, Andrew Beaucage, Zac Cushman, Allison Lupien, Wyatt Sykes, Elizabeth Flanagan, Noah Desan, and Eli Miller with costumes by Kerry Weber, and technical direction by Matt Kopishke.
Tickets, which includes dessert consisting of Moody’s pie, are $10. for adults and $8.00 for students and can be RESERVED HERE.

Music man White keeps tunes flowing as leader of band

This is a great great great article about Medomak Valley High School senior Patrick White.

From the article… During Medomak Valley High School home varsity basketball games this winter, the Panthers had many student-athletes they looked at to help guide the teams to success on the court, but to keep the music flowing, and the energy in the gymnasium festive and upbeat during timeouts and halftime, there was only one leader of the band and that young man was Patrick White.

White, an 18-year-old senior, was the guiding force behind the pep band as he and his small, dedicated group of music-loving schoolmates kept the tunes flowing and gave games a fun, dramatic, almost big-time collegesque-flair.

White said: “Having the opportunity to direct and be a part of such an amazing group of people is something I don’t think I’ll ever forget,” he said. “It’s funny, because you’d think that playing with a band and playing a sport are two totally different things, but I really think that in a lot of aspects they’re actually the same. It doesn’t matter if you’re trying to break a full-court press, or if you’re running the same four measures of a certain song over and over again to get the timing right: you need a lot of patience, practice, and persistence if you’re going to be successful.”

“Probably one of the biggest skills you need to have in either activity is the ability to be a good listener, because, frankly, we’re all wrong way more than we like to think we are. Hearing and implementing what everyone has to say not only helps you see things in a different light, but in the long run will make everyone happier and more successful. At the end of the day you’re a team, regardless of whether your pregame huddle is in a locker room or next to a drum set.”
