Sometimes the jokes write themselves.
The Roanoke Rapids Theatre, formerly known as the Randy Parton Theatre, will be hosting a three-hour casting call for the "Big Brother" reality show on Saturday.
"We feel that this is a great opportunity for the community, the theatre, and for us to connect with our wonderful viewers in the Roanoke Rapids area," said WNCT-TV Vice President Vickie Jones in a statement.
Dome immediately thought: Big Brother? Wasn't Randy Parton better known for his Big Sister?
A colleague suggested that it's ironic that a government-owned theater that has tried so hard to avoid public scrutiny is now hosting a reality show in which participants are filmed 24 hours a day.
Maybe they can loan a few cameras to the Roanoke Rapids City Council.
