Hey there theater fans! You might've heard the rumors, or spotted us rehearsing, or maybe even had a prophetic dream about it, and now it's finally here!

The Travelling Lantern Theatre Troupe of Whitney PROUDLY presents our newest production: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, premiering Friday, January 17th!! Drop into the Lobby for drinks, find something to eat in the storefront, then relax and enjoy the show like you've likely never seen it before!!

[Theater Troupe]

I didn't mention it last year because of all the cold and imminent death, but my birthday is the 18th!

I don't expect anything from y'all this year, don't worry!! It's barely a week away!! I just need you to know that NEXT year I'll be 50 and I WILL need tasteless jokes about it better to be over the hill than buried under it. If I don't get a walker with tennis balls on the feet I'll be DEVASTATED.

Wouldn't miss it for the world. I know it'll be even better than the original!

[soliloquacious]

And seein' as you're a worldly gentleman of taste, that should carry a LOT of weight for anyone on the fence!!

[trustmeimadoctor]

Everyone better go, or else. (I won't be mad, but I'll be very, very disappointed.)

[soliloquacious]

Shoot, guess I'd better make sure I show up now.

[trustmeimadoctor]

Don't make me use my stern dad face!

[soliloquacious]

That sounds devastating actually???

[malarkeys]

And he’s probably way too humble and kind to say it so I will; Blythe is our star!

And me.

[Theatre Troupe]
Oh my god of course we’re doing something what are you talking about

[soliloquacious]

CO-star to EVENING O'LEARY!!

[Theatre Troupe]
49 ain't even a milestone birthday!! I don't want you fretting over just another middle-aged man's day!!

[malarkeys]

Okay, Equal billing is Acceptable.

[Theatre Troupe]
You're our Favourite middle aged man, though. We Must have at least a Small party!!

[soliloquacious]

Also Edgar is somewhere in there.

[Theatre Troupe]
If you want to!! I'm just happy to not be stuck in the mountains this year, THAT'S party enough for me.

[malarkeys]

He's a Prominent Feature!!!!

[Theatre Troupe]
I insist So much.
What do you Want? Crazy Lobby rager? Classy Family Dinner??

[soliloquacious]

And you'll see a WHOLE new side to him!!

[Theatre Troupe]
If you throw a crazy Lobby rager I WILL assume you're just trying to get everyone out of the RV so I can lock the doors and have alone time with Niko.

[afairtrade]

I actually did have a dream that Edgar died last night.

[soliloquacious]

Was it on stage????

[afairtrade]

I think he fell in a hole or something.

[soliloquacious]

Lordy, now we're gonna have to fill in all the holes on stage just to be safe.

[afairtrade]

No orchestra pit in the theater, I guess.

[soliloquacious]

The symphonic musicians' union is gonna be ON us about this, but we can't risk losing Edgar to a HOLE!!

[malting]

Did you push him?

[afairtrade]

Wow. No. It was a tragic accident.

[malting]

Can't wait, I love to be emotionally devastated.

[soliloquacious]

Thank you very kindly, we at the Lantern LOVE to devastate emotions!!

[malting]

Good thing the Lobby is there to comfort all those broken hearts.

When you play characters like this, is it hard to get out of their heads afterwards? Feels like this one would be an emotionally devastating one for you both too.

[soliloquacious]

Sometimes!! My trick's usually been to give my face a big splash of cold water after I leave the stage so it's like I'm slapping myself back to reality, and I can remember I just ain't got the time or need to mope around.

[malting]

You're an incredibly resilient person Blythe, I admire that about you. I mean it.
