The Haunted Garden Wrap Party

May 5, 2017 NMSU-A Theatre on the Hill cast of The Haunted Garden, friends and relatives attended the wrap party at the beautiful home of the Robert Middleton family  in Alamogordo, New Mexico.

Brisket, buns and cake were provided by the Theatre Guild and cast members provided side dishes and snacks. The Middleton family provided drinks and accoutrements. There was ample food and drinks for all. Many enjoyed the beautiful swimming pool, hot tub and water fall all afternoon. I will let the pictures tell the story.

A grand time was enjoyed by all. The Haunted Garden was a terrific play written by Carolyn Dittmer and well acted by the cast. Connie Breding directed this Spring Children's play which was performed for 950 Alamogordo school students during the week before opening to the public on Friday evening, May 5, 2017 and running through Saturday night and Sunday Matinee on May 7, 2017. Attendance was excellent for the public performances as well. Thanks to the Middleton family for providing such a wonderful venue for the wrap party. Thanks to Douglas A. Kerr, Photography for the great photos.

This is all I have to say for now.
