I am sorry to inform you that another of our theatre family has died. Bob Jolly a long time actor and writer passed away this week. He was a perennial favorite on many stages and a strong force in the early development and success of such theatres as Billboard Theatre and First Repertory Theatre. He has also appeared on most of the theatre stage in the city. He will be most recently remembered as the writer and Master of Ceremonies for Cornyation one of the most unique events of Fiesta. Bob’s talent will be missed by theatre audiences and his many friends. His friends will also miss his great Christmas parties, his needlepoint, and his wacky sense of humor. We will send more information when it becomes available.
