We do love a good ghost story attached to the older theatres, and the Grant County Theater, 407 E. Center St., in Sheridan put their history in a Murder Mystery Dinner production called FINAL BOW, which was written and directed by Summer Brinley.

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.

"Sneaky bastard." Let 'em at it!

This premiered at a few film festivals in late 2023 and will open right away on VOD in the US starting in October this fall. Two distant cousins who've never met - one living in NYC, the other in the smallest town there is in Ireland - come together in Ireland to finally put an end to a generations-long family feud. It doesn't go well... The Problem With People, set in beautifully lush Irish countryside, is a heartwarming comedy about family, world peace... and sheep. 🐑 Colm Meaney and Paul Reiser (who also co-wrote & produced) star, along with Jane Levy, Lucianne McEvoy, and Des Keogh. Reviews say the film "ecomes a lovely trip to the Irish countryside, filled with great laughs, some bickering, and a lot of love."

Often made to be lighthearted and relatable in order to satisfy the tastes of a general audience, the primary goal of a comedy is to generate laughs. This is not to say comedies lack nuance — comedy itself is subjective, thus making it one of the hardest genres to write. But what's even more difficult? Making an audience laugh at something that's normally far from funny.
