Louis Buller Gohmert was born in Cameron, Texas on January 17, 1926 to parents Louis F. Gohmert and Carrie Buller Gohmert. He grew up in Cameron and graduated from Cameron Yoe High School. He attended Texas A&M University and was a member of the Corps of Cadets, played on the Texas A&M Baseball team, and majored in Architecture. While squaring to bunt during a baseball game, an inside pitch broke his finger. With his finger in a cast, Louis was summoned by the Dean of the Architecture Department where he was offered a choice: he could play baseball or he could pursue architecture, but he could NOT do both. Seeing a brighter future for himself in Architecture, he wisely chose to spend his career designing buildings that came to life as he dreamed them.
Mississippi State University s Theatre MSU is performing A Midsummer Night s Dream, featuring a creative and interactive take on the original Shakespearean play. A Midsummer Night s Dream will be performed at the A.B. McKay Enology Lab at North Farm, a fitting location to set the outdoorsy, whimsical mood. The play opens April 14 and runs through April 18, offering two performances each day. Only 30 tickets are available per show to keep social distancing measures in place and audience interaction levels high. Audience members and the cast are required to wear masks.Â
There are 18 total cast members, which leaves room for COVID-19 restrictions and social distancing. It is one of the larger casts Theatre MSU has had during the pandemic, which adds a level of enthusiasm for the participants and audience.
