Sentimentality isn't bound by boxes, paper wrapping or ribbons. It opens with every memory. For director Donny Graham, memories of "Over the River & Through the Woods" have been cooking since current cast member Keith Lindersmith directed the production more than 10 years ago.
You can experience those sentimental memories starting on Friday, Dec. 4 when the Visalia Players open "Over the River & Through the Woods" at the Ice House Theatre. "Ten years! Is that all?" Graham said. He assumed it was over 25 years ago that the production last hit a Visalia stage.
