A new community theatre group in Richmond Co. is putting on their first performance today.
Island Theatrics founder Cameron Jones says the variety show’s the theme is death.
Jones tells The Hawk Halloween is the season of death and they’ll play with that on stage.
“Death is the ultimate negative experience, but Halloween tries to present it in a funny way to try and help people get over their fear of it,” he says. “Every song, for example, that we do is tied to death in some way. Some ways it’s very funny and some ways it’s not.”
Jones says the show is full of spoofs and songs.
It’s happening at the new Saint John’s Centre for the Arts in Arichat.
He says they’ll be accepting donations for the centre at the door.
