Smokey Robinson Miracles Replacement was 100 Films Retreat Special Guest at Community Arts Festival
The Californer/10277746

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. - Californer -- 100 Films Retreat's own City Councilwoman, Kristine Scott, live & in-person expertly represented CityOfRC.us leadership at its 3rd annual Community Arts Festival.

Therein, HaplessRevenge.com Director Joshua Lavelle Newman, his Cast and Festival attendees were serenaded at the 100FilmsRetreat.com booth and beyond by Alphonse's voice. His is a sound that has beautifully imitated William (Smokey) Robinson, Jr. since Franklin was a small kid. "In my opinion, Mr. Franklin's now solo act is perfect fare for Lewis Family Playhouse professional presentation", says 100 Films Retreat Founding Curator Phillip E Walker, "and I'm going to work to get him booked to perform here in my home town".

While, without words, Upland, CA's Kane & Kylee Cavanaugh convincingly performed as frighten orphans during the Reading, supported successfully by Carson, Calif. resident Johnnie Mae Greene silently depicting the protective Black Woman character.
