Mena, AR

Nestled at the foot of the Talimena Drive that connects Mena, Arkansas and Talihina, Oklahoma sits this charming theatre that produces five shows a year. The Ouachita Little Theatre, 610 Mena St., in Mena, which was once a Lyric Movie Theater, transitioned to a live theatre in 1985 and has been going strong, minus Covid and a couple of tornadoes. For my first visit, but definitely not my last, I was able to catch DISNEY’S THE LITTLE MERMAID THE MUSICAL, which ran from July 26-August 4. Magically transporting us under the sea, this theatrical troupe mesmerized the young and young at heart and made us part of their world.

This one has it all: sexual tension, flirtation, verbal zingers, and (relatively) amusing clowns. The beautifully drawn love-hate relationship between tart-tongued Beatrice and blustery, confirmed bachelor Benedick is more engaging to modern audiences than the supposed main plot, which hinges on an elaborate scheme of deception and vicious shaming.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
