This season, two different Spotlight productions ran at the same time, and they shared more than a building. They shared a workshop.

While the Bluegrass Players’ Wolves of Sherwood was taking shape on our main stage, the Spotlight Acting School’s Seussical the Musical was coming together for our students. Behind both was the same pair of hands: Ken Koshman and Albert Lindsay, who run a family maker venture called Camp Creations.

For Wolves of Sherwood they built character specific weapons, from a snapped and refiled sword to a decorative hickory longbow. For Seussical they built a baby grand piano, a judge’s stand, a television, and more. Same season, same workbench, two troupes.

BereaOnline wrote an article about this. We are sharing their perspective from our side: read the full feature on Ken, Albert, and Camp Creations.

It is a reminder that community theater runs on the people who show up and figure out how to make the thing.
