Erich Offenburg sees a lot of his hometown in his productions at the Main Street Theater.

Twice a year, Offenburg puts on shows with actors who have special needs from this city 90 minutes east of Cleveland.

Nearly five years ago, his cast performed “The Little Mermaid.” “Shrek” starts later this week, and the theater that seats 400 will be filled with residents from across the Mahoning Valley.

Columbiana is a nice little town! Canfield people move there to get away from the Austintown people who moved to Canfield to get away from the Youngstown people who moved to Austintown.

In 30 years East Liverpool might be the place to be.
