Episode Synopsis

Virtual theater is commonplace during the pandemic--that is, if there's any theater at all, people are watching it streamed on screen. Mike and Brenda Lilly are a married couple in Asheville taking virtual theater one step further. They estimate spending about $4,000 of their own to adapt a stage play into a short film . "The Man in the Bright Nightgown," based on a one-man stage play of the same title by Greensboro playwright Tom Huey, is a 40-minute film screening through February under the umbrella of Asheville Community Theatre.
