“It is an honor and privilege to continue to be a part of telling stories about community here at Lakewood Playhouse in its 86th season. As we have prepared for rehearsals, the moon has served as an inspiration for my musings about the show. The image of George and Mary embracing in the moonlight has always been the most prominent in my mind from my viewings of the movie as a child. The moon has a profound influence on our lives, even when we may not be fully aware of its gravitational pull and how it impacts our experience of the world. Full moons symbolize completion. New moons signify new beginnings. Our journey with George, it could be said, is both a completion of a cycle and a new beginning, where we are invited to celebrate the power of community and the magic that happens when we choose to uplift one another.” – Brittany D. Henderson
