Editor,
Home run! The Port Polson Players hit it out of the park with their latest play, “Home Games.” About a father-daughter connection, it was both poignant and funny at the same time. Have you ever laughed and cried at the same time? Then you know how it feels to cross home plate.
The acting was phenomenal, with real-life daughter Anna showing maturity beyond her years, and father Neal giving us a grumpy yet lovable version of a parent suffering (and enjoying) his dementia. Their relationship felt very real and sweet. We also hope to see Eric Donovan again in many more roles.
Our thematic takeaways include family is forever; don’t let phony people mess with your values; and most especially, love wins. These are timeless themes we all can relate to.
Once again, the Lewings have given the gifts of their time, talent, and love to our community. Please support this local treasure by attending the upcoming plays, “Over the River and Through the Woods” and “Driving Miss Daisy.” You won’t be sorry.
