@BWW_Nashville Twitter Held Hostage, Day 6: MATTHEW HAYES HUNTER

By:

@BWW_Nashville Twitter Held Hostage, Day 6: MATTHEW HAYES HUNTER ImageThe Takeover of @BWW_Nashville's Twitter account continues unabated. Today, Matthew Hayes Hunter, the 2012 First Night Most Promising Actor who tonight takes to the stage of Murfreesboro's Center for the Arts to play Seymour Krelbourn, the geeky shopboy who brings the monstrous Audrey II to life in the musical Little Shop of Horrors, wrests control from Lipscomb University's Hunter Martin who kept things moving on Thursday in anticipation of LU's Senior Theatre Showcase on Saturday.

This, people, is why you need to protect your passwords so diligently: Anyone, it would seem, can gain control of your social media accounts and post willy-nilly whatever strikes their fancy!

It all started last Friday when playwright Tori Keenan-Zelt took control, then Belmont University Musical Theatre senior Katie Bays grabbed her brass ring, as it were, on Monday and took us along with her and her merry band's BUMT Senior Showcase at the Laurie Beechman Theatre in NYC - and since then it's been one artsy-fartsy type after another: On Tuesday, Clarksville's Roxy Regional Theatre's Ryan Bowie gave us a sneak peek at their upcoming [title of show], which also opens tonight; Molly Dobbs of Cumberland County Playhouse's Million Dollar Quartet commandeered Wednesday to take us backstage in Crossville; and so on and so forth, as you have probably noted. We are sensing a trend.

And our circuitous journey continues this Saturday with Sara Kistner, the assistant stage manager of The Larry Keeton Theatre's Daddy's Dyin'...Who's Got the Will takes over, followed by the cast and crew of Street Theatre Company's John and Jen on Sunday. Traditionally, the theater is dark on Monday so we will allow Twitter to languish in obscurity on that day. Then Nashville Ballet's Julia Eisen takes the reins on Tuesday to give us a tease of what to expect from 7 Deadly Sins, premiering next Friday night. Patrick Kramer, of Wild CaRD Productions and 12,000 local productions of Lucky Stiff since 2008 - wait, you mean there were only two? - takes up the challenge on Wednesday and then the lovely and talented Joanna and Daniel Hackman, two of the stars of Chaffin's Barn Dinner Theatre production of Beau Jest, get behind the wheel just in time for their two-show day next Thursday! Whew! We can hardly keep up and we're writing this stuff down!

Be sure to follow our extraordinary group of people who like to write with their thumbs on a tiny, tiny screen, telling stories in 140-characters or less, as they live life dramatically. Follow @BWW_Nashville for all this and so very much more.
