In Community Theatre! Poem by Catherine Inscore

In Community Theatre!



Taking a bow
With the rest of the crew
On a stage
Painted spectacular
Hues—
Music ablaze
Crowds instant rave!
One-by-one
Each character hits center
Stage
The roar and laughter
It’s where dreams do come true
Community theatre
Hooray hip hoo-rah!
Face paint, make-up and dress
Costumes all our best
For a show, three times
A week
What a blast!
Crowded in dressing rooms
Zip up dresses down
Pants on
Add a mustache or a smudge
Or perhaps maybe frown
Matters not what the face,
As long as we keep the pace!
Stay in character
Make them believe it
Keep it strong!
Have ‘em weeping
Make ‘em laugh
Keep them guessing
Who is bad…?
It’s all part of the act
And only we who will know
In the end, at curtain fall
The applause says it all
We put the community
In community theatre!
