Dear Mrs. Tiger,
I can't thank you enough for allowing me and my colleagues to make this web page for our One-Act group. Besides helping to create the page, I was also a member of the crew. Blind Woman's Bluff by far was the most hilarious and entertaining productions I've ever been apart of. Here is the link to the completed site.

November 17, 2006- Performance at WCHS
The One Act Play cast and crew hosted this year's production of Blind Woman's Bluff in their own hometown of Alamo, Georgia. The play was performed in the multipurpose room at Wheeler County High School. Students, teachers, and parents came out in droves to see the performance.
"Performing at competition is tough," said co-star Cody Thomas "but performing in front of your peers is even tougher."
As tough as it might have been, the production was a huge success. Due to the great response from the audience, there will be a benefit production on December 15, 2006. Click here to see the website
