This current production of Shakespeare’s “Merry Wives of Windsor” ad the Oregon Shakespeare festival is one of the best I’ve seen. I’ve seen several productions in the past and have enjoyed them all, but this was special because of G. Valmont Thomas as Sir John Falstaff, Knight.

Pride and Prejudice
This version of Pride and Prejudice (wirtten by Jane Austen, starring Keira Knightley) has a wonderful artistic feel to it.

Interchangeable Parts’ Rocky Horror
Every Saturday night at 11:30 p.m., the freaks of Florida somehow find their way to The Beach Theatre for their weekly dose of Rocky Horror. I blame extensive advertising during shows and on the Interchangeable parts website, http://ip.rhps.org/.

Romeo and Juliette: the Musical

Mountain Dew Soda
To be honest, Mountain Dew Soda is not my style. I’ve tried it, and I don’t like it. It has an odd citrus flavor that is terribly unappealing, and it looks like something I can’t write about. There’s nothing I like about Mountain Dew Soda, except …
