One-act play at Rodman

ALLIANCE – “Everything I Need to Know I Learned in The Twilight Zone,” a one-act play performed by husband and wife team of Mark Dawidziak and Sara Showman of The Largely Literary Theater Company, will be presented in the auditorium of Rodman Public Library on Wednesday, Oct. 8, 2025 at 6:30 pm. The event is sponsored by The Friends of Rodman Library. The two-person show was written by Showman and is based on the book by Dawidziak that was published in 2017. The lighthearted tribute to Rod Serling’s classic 1959-64 anthology series features 50 life lessons drawn from classic “Twilight Zone” episodes and feature a forward by Serling’s daughter, Anne Serling. This one-act play recalls memorable moments from these enduring parables, exploring how each lesson was supported by the morality tales told by Serling and his writers from this wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. The performance will be followed by question-and-answer session and a book signing. Mark and Sara last appeared at Rodman three years ago presenting “Ghosts of the Civil War.” The program is free and open to the public. Advance reservations are required through the Rodman website at rodmanlibrary.com.
