Stages Past Nine
"Act of Desperation"
Presented July - 1992
Oldemeyer Center 986 Hilby Avenue
Seaside, California
Pictured left are Ron Tate and Andre Porter. Ron was one of the featured players with The Big Sur Players in Big Sur, CA. Andre Porter was turning his first acting role, where he received several compliments for his efforts.
Pictured below are Jeremy Slate and Etha Gray. "I was quite surprised when veteran movie actor Jeremy said he wanted to work with me."
This director of the Big Sur Players theater group, was also on the soap  One Life to Live from 1980-85, played a mad priest in Stephen Kings Lawnmower Man, appeared in Girls, Girls, Girls starring Elvis, True Grit with John Wayne and numerous episodes of Gunsmoke and Bonanza was touched by the subject matter, i.e., the L.A. Riots. Working together  we were both able to  help the actors take off in their careers.
June Ann Lewis, one oif the actresses, says "Everyone likes doing stuff with Etha. Her plays make for positive change.
Andre Porter stated, "If nothing else comes out of Etha's production, maybe it'll take the kids off the street, take the crack out of their hands and put a script in them."
My philosphy is: Stage should deal with what's going on in the world. People should see that no dream is impossible if you work at it. You can take your disappointments and turn them into positive acheivements."
