New Horizon Theater Inc.’s Joyce Meggerson-Moore checked in with the New Pittsburgh Courier to thank those who packed the house during the organization’s Annual Special Event on May 25.
Russell Thompkins Jr. and The New Stylistics were loved by all, as they sang “You’re a Big Girl Now,” “Stop, Look, Listen,” “Break Up to Make Up,” and “You Make Me Feel Brand New,” among other favorites.
Meggerson-Moore said that among those in attendance were Judge Dwayne Woodruff and Joy Maxberry Woodruff, who described the evening as “wonderful,” and “enjoyable…The dance choreography, the sharp brocade tuxedo jackets and Russell Thompkins Jr.’s vocals were all superb. And lastly, the live professional band with the young director who stood up to do a step or two made the show an absolute hit.”
Meggerson-Moore explained that The Opening Act was an excerpt from “Freeda Peoples,” which played at the Homewood Library from May 31-June 16. It was written by Joyce Sylvester and directed by Eileen J. Morris.
