As a lover of The Arts, I enjoy finding new outlets to enhance my creativity, and because of this, I was introduced to the Black Swamp Players, which is a community theater company based in Bowling Green, Ohio. I had the opportunity to play “Wendy,” in their production of Sara Ruehl’s For Peter Pan on her 70th Birthday. Because of my role, I had the opportunity to have an intimate interview with the play’s outstanding producer, Dr. Heath Diehl. This interview marked the beginning of the exciting changes that are coming to the series!
