The Tupelo
The Tupelo Theatre and Cultural Center is a dream come true for founder and director, Michael Lister. Located in downtown Wewahitchka, The Tupelo is an outreach of Lister's Direct Effect Project and the home of the Pottersville Players.
In addition to staging Lister's original plays, The Tupelo hosts concerts, workshops, films, youth activities, art exhibits, classes, and other artistic and cultural activities for the art-starved people of north Florida, Gulf County, and especially, Wewahitchka.
I regard the theatre as the greatest of all art forms, the most immediate way in which a human being can share with another the sense of what it is to be a human being. Oscar Wilde
The drama is the book of the people.
Robert Aris Willmott
What is drama but life with the dull bits cut out.
Alfred Hitchcock
A passion for the dramatic art is inherent in the nature of man.
