What stimulates creative inspiration? For Playwright Rebecca Reynolds, one answer is Edward Hopper, a leading 20th-century realist painter whose work ignites the curiosity of many. On March 9, the Old Art Building (OAB) in Leland will present three short plays, written and directed by Reynolds, that are based upon three Hopper paintings. A sold-out evening performance motivated the OAB to schedule a matinee the same day. The event, coined as Drinks, Drama & Dessert, will include social time and dessert alongside the plays performed by a selection of talented locals.

Leland local Rebecca Reynolds and co-director McAdoo Greer will bring their dramatic spoof “Breathing Space” to Leland’s Old Art Building stage for three hilarious shows June 16-18. Opening night is sold out, but tickets are still available for the latter two performances. The play is set in an upscale lakeside village populated by the one percent and features an all-star cast of local and national, professional actors.
