Gratefully Tripping at The Sherman

Our Good Friends at The Sherman Theatre in Stroudsburg, PA presented The Dark Star Orchestra Concert on Sunday May 13th. The Dark Star Orchestra recreates Grateful Dead concerts so those who would like to relive or experience them for the first time can do so. Hundreds of people showed up so they could be passengers on the long, strange trip recreated from a concert performed in April of 1989. The vast audience danced and sang their way through the four hour show and left with the delightfully satisfying buzz associated with being in communion with The Grateful Dead and their music. I saw too many of Our Good Friends to list but I welcome any of you who attend to share their recollections of the show with me. However, I would like to take special note of Our New Friend Bill Kelly who had his creative endeavors hanging upon the walls among The Sherman. His work not only reflected the spirit of the show, but they demonstrated a talent touching the soul of all who view it under any circumstances. I encourage anyone to come visit the Sherman to see his work whether there’s a show going on or not. The next show at Our Good Friends at The Sherman Theatre will be The Pocono Lively Arts production of “Nunsense” taking place May 18th-20th.
