The Astor Theatre in Liverpool got more than a new executive director this week. It also got a new dog.
Jerri Southcott took over on Feb. 5 from interim executive director Jean Robinson.
And she’s already made one big change. Macduff, her laidback nine-year-old Nova Scotia duck tolling retriever, will be keeping her company as she leads the Astor.
Southcott isn’t worried about the old W.C. Fields warning against working with children or animals. “He takes that saying and spins it to the positive for sure. He’ll definitely steal the show.”
