“We’ve got some really amazing local talent in this show,” Chris Tillman, assistant director, said of the Windmill Productions’ rendition of the Rodgers and Hart musical Beguiled Again that will have show times at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
The six-person lead cast consists of three women and three men.
The women are relatively new to the Windmill scene.
While Lori Jenkins-Scott now lives in Nashville with her husband Dennis of the WannaBeatles, she was born in Bellefontaine and is staying with her mother while preparing for the show. She has been performing since the 1970s and includes among the highlights of her career a performance before President Ronald Reagan at Disney World.
