Glen Miller at the Sherman

The Sherman Theatre* in Stroudsburg, PA presented The Glenn Miller Orchestra on Saturday May 10th featuring classic Big Band tunes along side treatments of compositions created after the swing era. The enchanting evening drew from the wells of memories of those who attended the event while many dreamily touched each note with their recollections while others rekindled the romantic natures of their decades old relationships as they embraced one another in a dance. The presence of The Studio West Dance Club encouraged many to approach the dance floor with their movements. Richard Berkowitz*, Bill Kelly*, and Beth Dollard* (all of the Sherman) were among the many as were Arline M. Smeltz* and Gary Lambert*. The next events at The Sherman Theatre* will be The Pocono Lively Arts* presentation of “Company” taking place May 16th - 18th featuring an honest, witty, sophisticated look at relationships through a brilliant energetic score containing many of Sondheim's best-known songs and an ensemble of quirky, memorable Woody Allen-esque characters which doubles as the show's chorus. Please Explore The Sherman Theatre* Website for more information. You’ll find numerous photographs at The Forwardian Arts Society Glen Miller at the Sherman Gallery at myspace.com/forwardian_arts.
