Dane Allred in "Noises Off" at the Scera Indoor Theatre

I'm in "Noises Off" at the Scera Indoor Theatre Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturdays until October 10th at 7:30 pm.

The show is just over two hours of continuous laughter!

I'm playing the alcoholic old actor who is the burglar in a "house full of flapping doors".

Carol Burnett and John Ritter were in the film version, but our cast outstanding, too!

It's hard to keep up with these youngsters (and yes, I actually heard the words "When I am your age" from one of them.

     I'm officially old!

     Hope to see you at the show, and stick around after so we can catch up!

Holmes


Heredity is a bus, in which all our ancestors ride, and every now and then
one of them puts his head out and embarrasses us.

Oliver Wendall Holmes, Jr.

Sonnet 1 by William Shakespeare


Sonnet I

FROM fairest creatures we desire increase,
That thereby beauty's rose might never die,
But as the riper should by time decease,
His tender heir might bear his memory:
But thou, contracted to thine own bright eyes,
Feed'st thy light'st flame with self-substantial fuel,
Making a famine where abundance lies,
Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel.
Thou that art now the world's fresh ornament
And only herald to the gaudy spring,
Within thine own bud buriest thy content
And, tender churl, makest waste in niggarding.
Pity the world, or else this glutton be,
To eat the world's due, by the grave and thee.
