USF students tell Plant City stories
The Plant City Photo Archives and History Center recently hosted a project for a group of University of South Florida students.
The school’s Advanced Journalism course and WUSF Public Media have been working on a project called “Telling Tampa Bay Stories” and came to town to interview local residents for the Plant City portion. Seventeen residents stopped by the Photo Archives on Sept. 29 to tell stories about the town, which the 15 USF students then used for their project.
Improv rom-com
One lucky Plant City couple could see their story performed live on Saturday night.
Plant City Entertainment, 101 N. Thomas St., is hosting local improv group Under-Medicated’s newest show, “When ___ Met ___” from 6 to 8 p.m. Oct. 6 and will ask one couple from the audience to share details about how they got together, then come up with a three-act romantic comedy to perform right away. The group said rom-com junkies can count on the “meet cute, the sassy best friend and the happily ever after.”
Tickets cost $10 per person and the show is a fundraiser for PCE.
