5. Virtually no retail establishments nearby. All that there is nearby is "Public Market."
Actually, a thriving community theater with regular capacity audiences is right across the street, along with a dance studio that is packed with students (and their thirsty/hungry parents) every evening. Between the actors, tech crew, audiences, parents, and volunteers and staff in this building alone, there is a built-in patron base right there. Not to mention the Youngstown Business Incubator, Turning Technologies, Vindicator, City Hall, Police Department, and YMHA, all of which are located within a block.
I, for one, thought your response to Milan's review was very informed and spot-on. Many of his criticisms were exaggerated and there is no reason to mention another theater in a review of a one-weekend show with a completely different theme and audience. And I am certainly all for leaving the criticism to the professionals...if only we had more in this town...
thanks for the head's up. i never got around to tapazza, though i heard such wonderful things about to. mayhaps i will crash lucy's friday night date ;)
all i know is that i, for one, am dreading this election. as a bespectacled brunette, i've already heard "oh, you look just like sarah palin!" from several people, including family members. in reality, we look nothing alike, but the glasses (which don't even look like hers!) really throw people for the loop.
i want that shirt! but upon closer inspection, i find a comma error that makes the camp quality far less desireable. she can't even wear t-shirts with correct punctuation!

Due to an error in the program, Jack is actually played by Brandon Smith. B.J. Wilkes played FDR.
