Bedford Acting Group was awesome tonight! A round of applause to everyone: actors, director, stage manager, props and set design, and everyone else! Amazing job!
Rumor has it that Stamford resident Gene Wilder, who played “Willy Wonka” in the original film, was in the audience at tonight’s performance. Can anyone confirm if this is true?
