There’s something special about community theater — neighbors becoming storytellers, small-town stages turning into magical worlds, and ordinary people doing extraordinary things under the lights.

In this episode, I sit down with the director and cast of the Johnson County Community Theatre’s production of “The Old Man and the Old Moon.” We talk about the heart behind the show, the challenges of bringing a whimsical, music-filled adventure to life, and what makes community theater such an important part of Johnson County.

You’ll hear about the story itself — a lighthouse keeper who leaves his post to follow his wife across the sea — and how this imaginative, emotional tale comes alive through live music, creative staging, and a whole lot of passion from local performers.

If you love theater, storytelling, or just hearing how creative people bring art to life in small-town America, this one’s for you.

...In this heartfelt and wide-ranging interview on Jeremiah Creek, Dave sits down with Anne Buckle—musician, multi-instrumentalist, children’s author, and storyteller of the South. Anne shares the winding, extraordinary journey that took her from her roots in Peachtree City, Georgia, along The Crooked Road through Mountain City and Bristol, to the Carter Family Fold, Harvard University, Parisian diplomacy, and ultimately Nashville’s vibrant music scene. We dive deep into her enchanting new album Wildwood, filled with rootsy soul and Appalachian echoes, and her beautiful new children’s book Firefly, which lights up the imagination of kids and parents alike. As always, expect a few classic Jeremiah Creek technical hiccups—Dave’s camera has a mind of its own—but the conversation shines through. This one is a must-watch for lovers of Americana, inspiring journeys, and authentic creativity.
