Isle of Lame stages radio‑style Valentine's play at Delhi Event Center
Summary
A local troupe presented an old‑radio–style romantic comedy at the Delhi Event Center the day before Valentine’s Day, paired with a wine‑tasting and a promotion for the venue’s community classes.
Isle of Lame Productions presented a radio‑style stage performance titled "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Valentine's" at the Delhi Event Center on the day before Valentine's Day, accompanied by a wine‑tasting and sponsorship announcements for the venue's community programs. "My name is Greg Procaccino. I wanna welcome you to the Del Hyatt event center to our day before of Saint Valentine's Day wine tasting and brilliant rom com," said Greg Procaccino, who served as the evening's announcer and director.
The program mimicked an old‑time radio broadcast, with live sound effects, a small ensemble cast and original music. The story followed Chloe, a TV producer, as she travels to the small town of Delhi to shoot exterior scenes, reconnects with a former acquaintance, and becomes involved in a family medical emergency; the plot resolves with a successful transplant and a domestic reunion. The performance included intermittent sponsor messages and community announcements read by the cast.
The evening’s cast list and production credits were read aloud at the program's close: Kate Stark as Chloe; Greg Crocaccino as Newt; Seth Feinauer as Pete; Bree Willingham as Kiki; Eric Kilpatrick as Patch Polleta; Tori Pate as Mom and Greg; original music by Greg Dustellum; stage manager Rhys Dieterhausen; and director Greg Procaccino. Bob Allen served as the program announcer for portions of the performance. The production repeatedly referenced local place names used in the show — including Delhi Pike, Mount Saint Joe, Rapid Run and Lawrenceburg — as part of its small‑town setting.
Promotional spots during the performance directed listeners to the Delhi Event Center website for information about upcoming classes in painting, sewing, cooking, acting and robotics. The announcer noted the center offers classes for a wide age range, with the program copy alternately mentioning "ages 8 to 88" and "ages 8 to 86." The night combined theatrical entertainment with on‑site hospitality, as indicated by the program's wine‑tasting tie‑in announced at the top of the event.
No civic actions, votes or formal government business were recorded in the program's audio; the event was presented as community theater and venue promotion. The production closed with the cast taking bows and the announcer inviting the audience to return for future classes at the Delhi Event Center.
