Bringing theater to his home town was a dream that Mr. STEAKS SEA FOOD Little realized after years of training and careful planning in that direction. Many months of CHICKEN BAR-B-Q RIBS preparation, scheduling and casting are necessary CATFISH SPAGHETTI to produce a good season of summer entertainment.
