This year’s Ghosts of Sotterley production will take guests back in time to the year 1918. While restoring Sotterley Plantation to its former glory, owner, Herbert Satterlee disturbs more than the bricks and mortar as the country is in the midst of a flu pandemic and the remains of the Great War. Prepare to encounter both the earthly inhabitants of the time and those not of this earth on this historical and spooky outdoor walking tour!
The ever-so-talented and important Sotterley friend, Dawna Diaz has been actively involved in all aspects of the Ghosts of Sotterley for the past 10 years. She returns as Director, Producer and Make-up Artist for this year’s production. She hasn’t been off site for long, as she recently finished directing our War of 1812 living history events entitled, “The Choice – Risking Your Life for Freedom.” When not directing or performing on a stage, she can be found mediating or working her day job on base at Atlantic Test Range.
Dedicated volunteer and local celebrity, James LePore returns as the Playwright and Assistant Director of the Ghosts of Sotterley for the fourth year. He is a working actor with an impressive resume, a DJ on internet radio (www.phoenixintermedia.com), and is the Host of The Buzz on TV’s Metrocast Channel 10.
