Proud Supporter of the Arts

Supporting our local communities and neighbors is the South State Way.

Directors’ notesMy first exposure to Bye Bye Birdie was right here at the Strand Theater, in my first two shows as a Swamp Fox Player; they were revues which each featured a song from the classic 1960 musical. The music is cheerful, optimistic, and infectious; the script is lighthearted, sweet, and funny. I knew the minute I read it that Broadway’s first Rock ‘n Roll musical would be the perfect choice for my directorial debut.

The show that you’ll see tonight is the combined effort of so many people who truly love this theater. Joe Ford, Jan Fort, lee Padgett, Stephen Stewart, and Tracy Crane have all been invaluable mentors who have offered so much helpful advice and guidance. I would also be remiss to not mention the wonderful support I’ve received from the Production Board. The cast, crew, stage manager William Gaskins, music director Kenneth Bedwell and his orchestra are all to be commended for their tireless hard work and dedication. every single one of you is a rock star, and I am in awe of you all. last, and certainly not least, I need to thank my husband--my best friend--Richie, for all of his love, support, and sacrifice while I realized this dream. you are the reason I get to do this wonderful thing that I love, and you are the rock on which I stand.

Thank you to our audience for coming tonight and I hope that you will enjoy tonight’s performance as much as we have enjoyed bringing it to this stage!

Josie Thames, Director

CELEBRATING TRIUMPHS OF THE CREATIVE SPIRIT.

CELEBRATING TRIUMPHS OF THE CREATIVE SPIRIT.

Perhaps the most

important thing you can

do to awaken your own

creativity is to support

the creativity of others.

That’s why we’re so

proud to give back to

the people and organizations who

inspire our artistic side – and we

have been since 1962. Over more

than 50 years, Raymond

James has become a

leading patron of the

arts in our communities

and across the country.

And today, it’s our

privilege to continue

that tradition of celebrating

the creative spirit alongside

you. LIFE WELL PLANNED.

Proud to support inspiration.

We are proud to support Swamp Fox Players and the Strand Theater.
