IN THE SPOTLIGHT: Actor Adrian De Groot, master of accent and dialect

Adrian has been active in Kitsap county community theaters for over 20 years. He first appeared at the Performing Arts Guild of South Kitsap in "The Foreigner" in 1998. Since then, he has been involved in over 30 productions, as an actor, light and sound tech, and stage manager. When he's not indulging in theater, Adrian holds down his day job as a programmer, and is graced with a wonderful family! His wife of 24 years and three kids are very supportive, and even volunteer in the lobby and hospitality roles at the Bremerton Community Theatre. As an actor, Adrian gravitates towards fun character parts, especially those with accents, including Agatha Christie's "Appointment with Death", where he got to work with your humble hosts.

IN THE NEWS: De-aging technology on the loose in Hollywood

De-aging technology is rampant in Hollywood despite varying degrees of success.  It allows older actors to keep playing their younger selves or, in the case of James Dean, come back from the dead!  Just because this incredible technology exists, should it be used?  Will it put younger actors out of work?  And what does it means for your rights to your own image, even after death?
