"The Whiz" began last weekend for Community Little Theater.

We had a week of rehearsals (the band) and from the get-go everything sounded great! The shows have been different each night as for sound quality and cues-- that is the magic of live theater. Everything is still tight and the show is a spectacle to see.
The music director, Paul Caron, received a legislative sentiment on Sunday for his work in the community, his teaching and directing, and his musical "Lewiston: A new Home". I have worked with him several times and I know of no other person that deserves as much. He is inspirational; a PhD, a nice Mercedes, head of department at USM, and of course the chops to play in a pit or a pop band. We follow his cues and he always takes care of his band. That is a quality leader!
Here is to anyone who thinks that Maine cannot produce great people-- Paul Caron proves you wrong!
I am following in his footsteps.
