I've heard the same legends regarding Belushi. Rumor has it he tried a lot of things while he was at Shawnee. It also says that he was deciding between acting and a football scholarship when he did his summer stint with this little theatre in Indiana. The staff didn't have enough money to cover Mr. Belushi, so his high school football coach "Sponsored" him by giving him $50 a week to live off of. After that he had caught the 'bug' and the rest, as they say, is history.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the mention!<BR/><BR/>Matthew Graber<BR/>Producing Artistic Director<BR/>Shawnee Summer Theatremattgraberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01634782532300547109noreply@blogger.com
