What did our critic think of DEATH OF A SALESMAN at The Pocket Community Theatre? It is always a treat when I can travel down to my favorite Arkansas city and see my newest favorite theatre troupe perform yet another impressive show.

And as I was eavesdropping on my fellow audience members, the group opinion had a resounding love for the performance.
