Anne, Attend “Okra” in Lockport last week and thoroughly enjoyed the storyline and the performances. Good to learn that someone from the bayou is nationally recognized. Perry Martin did a great job directing, and Lois Duet, Michelle Becnel, Jana Cheramie, Dan Salvatura and Tory Andrus were great. The audience was in stitches throughout the performance. My wife, who does not speak French was a little intimidated that the dialogue would be over her head. I think she was the one laughing the loudest!
