Harold D. Losey, 98, Pioneer Road, Emporium, PA

0 Comments

Harold D. Losey, 98, Pioneer Road, Emporium, PA, passed away Wednesday afternoon (March 13, 2024).

  Born July 12, 1925 in Dents Run, PA a son of the late Lee J. and Daisy C. Rider Losey, he was raised in rural Benezette Township, graduating Benezette High School class of 1942 (class of 5). 

The Bennetts Valley area, its mountaintop vistas, feeder trout streams, and old logging roads and abandoned railroads remained a playground his entire life. Working in the area coal industry for a time, he enlisted in the US Army in August of 1944, serving in the Pacific Theatre, and honorably discharged in August 1946. 

After service to his country, he returned briefly to the coal industry, but it seemed life had a different calling in mind.  A required aptitude test at the St. Mary’s unemployment office identified some talent for mechanical drawing and landed him a drafting position at Sylvania in Emporium in 1948.

A 40 year career in automated equipment design and management ensued, culminating in a final year abroad in Eindhoven, Netherlands, the headquarters for Sylvania successor company Philpis Electronics.

Open Auditions for Cast Members of “Once Upon A Crime, The Trial of Goldilocks”

0 Comments

Hamilton-Gibson Productions will be holding auditions for 15 cast members of all ages and genders to play many of our best-loved fairy tale characters in the upcoming production of the comedy, Once Upon A Crime, The Trial of Goldilocks, by Flip Kobler and Cindy Marcus. Performances will take place June 13 – 16 during the Laurel Festival at The Warehouse Theater in Wellsboro. The play is being directed by Titus Himmelberger, an experienced actor, director and set designer. 

Once Upon A Crime is a hilarious fairy-tale courtroom play packed with characters we all know and love.  The audience serves as the jury and determines how the play ends. Goldilocks is the defendant, on trial for breaking and entering, and the plaintiffs are the three bears.  As their lawyers Henny Penny and Tom Thumb go toe-to-toe hoping to prove their respective clients’ cases, other fairy tale characters are called to testify as witnesses, including Hansel and Gretel, Jack and Cow, Granny, and more.  Even the Big Bad Wolf takes the stand, but who should be trusted in this caper remains to be decided by the audience. 

Auditions will be in the Warehouse Gallery on Thursday, March 28, Friday March 29, and Friday, April 6 at 6:30pm. They will also be held Saturday, March 30 and Saturday, April 7 at 10:30am, and Sunday, April 8 at 1:30pm.  Audition information is also available at www.hamiltongibson.org/audition.htm
