"A jewel in Clifton
I recently had the
privilege of attending the latest production of Theater League of
Clifton’s "You Can’t Take It With You." I found [it] to be a truly
enjoyable evening in the theater. The cast had talent equal to
Broadway actors and the set design was so impressive that you knew it
had to be professionally done with all the period furniture and
costumes from the 1930s.
Clifton should be
grateful that this group has put so much effort into giving back to
its community. How fortunate we are to have this jewel in our own
backyard. There were many residents participating in this wonderful
production. From the ushers, to the people selling refreshments at
intermission and the lighting was operated by students learning the
ropes, as were the back stage hands at each of the six shows. And the
majority of the proceeds go towards awarding two scholarships to high
school students each year.
I have never seen a
collaboration of a community come together for a group or
organization with such enthusiasm as I have seen for TLC. Sometimes
it takes years to build a community theater and TLC has done a
wonderful job in less than 3 years. My hat goes off to them. I urge
everyone to support this wonderful organization.
