Summary: Poetry in Motion.
Comment: DARK OF THE MOON takes place in the Appalachian Mountains. It is a play about a witch boy named John who falls in love with a beautiful girl named Barbara Allen. John has a conjur woman turn him into a human. The only condition of the spell is that Barbara must remain faithful to John for one full year after they are married. If Barbara is not faithful, then John will turn back into a witch boy.
The play is beautifully written and allows actors a wonderful opportunity to use the Appalachian dialect. At times, the words of the characters become poetry in motion. Nevertheless, DARK OF THE MOON is not a very uplifting play. Yes, it deals with prejudice and loss and hypocrisy; but because of the way the play is written these issues have no purpose and give the play no meaning. Therefore, though the play maybe poetry in motion, it has no soul.

Summary: "Look at the moon"ÿ
Comment: It all started in the mountains. John the witch boy climbs up conjur mountain. Tired and out of breath, he beg's conjur man to change him to human. All for the love of of the the mountain gal Barbra Allen. He finally gets what he go's after.Althought there are a few catches. When John come into town durning a dance he finds his Barbra and her date Marvin, the town stud, he desides that he will cut in. Marvin doesn't like that too much, but john still has a little of dark power inside of him... While performing cut from this play, the charater loss all sense of acting and truely became there parts. Judges told us that they could not look away from the stage, to ever write comments down they had to wait untill it was complete. We enjoyed it so much that we'll never forget the love story of John the witch boy and his love for Barbra Allen.
