QVAA to stage summer double feature

QUINCY — Quincy Valley Allied Arts is offering a two-fer this weekend, with a pair of short plays for the whole family. “Last summer (QVAA) … posted on Facebook, ‘We don’t have enough volunteers to have a summer production,” said director Emily Ellis. “And my heart is really in theater … so I wrote them and said I would volunteer. And they wrote back and said ‘So you want to direct.’ I said I haven’t directed a whole lot, just my second year of college. And they were like ‘That’s fine. You’ll be great.’ So here I am.”
