LAKE COUNTY — Lake County Live! returns to the Soper-Reese Community Theatre, and the airwaves of KPFZ 88.1 FM for its third outing on Sunday at 6 p.m.
Created and hosted by Doug Rhoades, Lake County Live! is a one-hour radio broadcast from the theater in front of a live audience. The show was conceived as a venue for local musical talent and creative writers, with an audience beyond the walls of the theater.
“Our goal is to provide great music and humor and really showcase the variety of talents we have here in Lake County,” Rhoades said.
“The show is dynamic in that we”re putting on a radio program in real-time, so we have to move right along with every program.” Past shows featured talent, such as Polecat Rodeo, Three Deep, EarReverence, Travis Rinker, Michael Barrish with Scott Sommers and Vim Natura.
“This month, I”m proud to present two musical acts: Uncorked, playing folk, Irish and bluegrass, and Andy Rossoff, a very talented keyboard performer and singer,” Rhoades said.
The show starts at 6 p.m. on the last Sunday of each month at the Soper-Reese, doors open at 5:30.
“We hope everyone will be in the theater and seated by 5:45, as we talk with the audience for a few minutes before the 6 p.m. start. Because we”re live, that 6 p.m. start is vital. We don”t have 20 seconds lee-way, we have to hit the mark coming in and going out,” Rhoades said.
Tickets are available at the Soper-Reese Community Theatre box office on Fridays from 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and at the Lake County Travel Center, 1265 S. Main St. in Lakeport. Information about the shows may also be obtained at lakecountylive.com, or by visiting Lake County Live! on Facebook. The show is produced with the support of the theatre, Lake County Community Radio KPFZ 88.1 FM and Lake County News.
