OLT announces cast of spring musical

Submitted by Julie Ulmer

Ouachita Little Theatre is already in rehearsal for the next play production, the off-Broadway version of “Little Shop of Horrors” directed locally by Alex Night.

This comedy revolves around a meek flo- follows: Chiffon is being played by Stefani Collins, Anna Burt portrays Crystal, Ronnette is played by Taz Haggard, Tommy Myers plays Mushnik, and Audrey is portrayed by Miranda Burt. The lead character, Seymour, is played by Silas Baker, and Hayden Copelin plays the memorable role ral assistant named Seymour who stumbles across a new breed of plant that mysteriously sings “R&B” and has a rather dark, carnivorous habit. Written as an off-Broadway musical by composer Alan Menken with Howard Ashman, who wrote the book and lyrics, the musical is itself an adaptation of a 1960 film by Roger Corman of the same name. A popular film version of the story was also produced in 1982 by director Frank Oz.

Due to some adult themes and language contained in this show, OLT advises parental guidance for young or sensitive viewers.

Director Night announces the cast as of Orin Scrivello, DDS. Jocelyn Biard and Ryan Lewis will perform the puppet manipulation of “Audrey II” (the mysterious plant) and Joey Decker will provide the singing and acting voice.

Alex tells us “We have a true dream team working on this show — to say that we are excited to share this experience with the Mena community is a huge understatement!”

Performance dates are May 12, 13, 14, 19, 20, 21. Friday and Saturday performances are at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday matinees are at 2:30 p.m. Tickets are already available at oltmena.com for reserved seating.

City of Mena spring clean-up

The City of Mena Annual Spring CleanUp is scheduled to begin on Tuesday, March 28. City trucks will pick up items you want to dispose of at no charge. This Clean-up service is free for residences within the city limits of Mena only

Please follow the below listed regulations to ensure that the pick-up runs smoothly.

Materials will not be picked up unless they are placed at the curb-side and separated. Street Department personnel cannot go onto private property to assist in moving items.

It is very important to separate any items that you want to keep away from those that are to be discarded, such as trash cans.

The following items cannot be picked up: concrete, brick, rocks, dirt, shingles, batteries, and construction debris.

Please separate your items to be discarded into 5 distinct piles as follows:

• Furniture — couches, chairs, televisions, window frames, etc.

• Household trash — paper items, etc.

(Please place trash cans, that you wish to keep, to one side so that they will not be disposed of inadvertently.)

• Metal material -- hot water heaters, stoves, appliances, etc.

• Yard waste — tree limbs, shrubs, grass, etc.

• Tires

Note - it is required that all small yard debris, such as small limbs, gum balls, leaves and grass, be placed in garbage bags.

The Mena Street Department will begin pick up in the northwest part of the city and work their way across town following the same routes as Southern Disposal. Trucks will run one to three days after the day of your normal trash pick-up.

The response to this Clean-Up is usually overwhelming, so please be patient if the trucks are running somewhat behind the posted schedule; however, each route will only be covered one time. It is not necessary to call City Hall in order to receive this service.
