“Mr. Samuels love Belize. He has been here on at least four occasions that I know of and I have been a part of bringing him here for all those years, starting way back in the 1980s. He loves Belize and Belize loves him. He is always well received and received everywhere he goes. Oliver is an international star and n international performer. He is now in his fiftieth year in theater and that is a big part of the celebration. This is a brand new production that he is doing for his fiftieth and it is written and directed by Patrick brown of Jamaica. If you have heard me with the rotary plays over the past eighteen nineteen years, Patrick Brown is the play write we have used the most because he has donated those work to us. So we know the quality of Patrick’s work because we have had sold out audiences for it. So, picture Patrick and Oliver combined in “Guilty with Explanation”, and you know you are going to get an explosive performance.  It is going to be at the Bliss Center for the Performing Arts. It is next Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and September twenty-third, twenty fourth, and twenty-fifth. The tickets are available at the Bliss or by calling 6318183 or 6548660, because you might be out district and can’t make it to the Bliss, call the numbers, order your tickets, deposit to Jankunu Productionz Heritage Bank account, 9141308, and send us a copy of the deposit, we get the tickets waiting for you when you come. The point I want to make in this interview is that tickets are going. Somebody called last night for one particular segment for the ticket. We have general for twenty –five, reserve for fifty, premium for seventy, and the v.i.p box was a hundred. But, the V.I.P has been sold out now, so you can’t get that. But, you can get the other areas.”
