PUFFS is the story of Wayne Hopkins: a regular boy who finds out he’s a wizard and goes to school in England where he makes two best friends and has adventures.

Here We Be Goblinz! will be happening every Wednesday in July over at twitch.tv/pslcomedy!
We are devastated to learn of the passing of Tony Rivenbark, an absolute legend of the Wilmington theater community. He had a warmth and grace that was infectious, and it didn’t matter if he was directing, producing, or just making a brief cameo appearance in your show; you knew he would put his whole heart into everything he did.
As Executive Director of Thalian Hall, it was Tony who gave PSL a creative outlet at the Ruth & Bucky Stein Theater, and without his support, it is very likely that shows such as Bachelorette and Wolfcrush might have never seen the light of day. He was a champion of all theater companies, big or small, with a focus on LGBT-friendly material that set Wilmington apart from other NC theater communities.
The hole left in his absence will be felt for many years to come, but for now, we would just like to say we are eternally grateful for everything Tony did, both for PSL and for the community at large. Rest in Peace, friend.
