Fremont Community Theatre and Director Michael PJ Foos are pleased to present the World Premiere of THE PLAY: NOT A DIRTY WORD by Old Fort’s Ron Hill (HOUSE FOR SALE; LADIES OF HARMONY).

THE PLAY: NOT A DIRTY WORD takes a look at what happens when a would-be author sits down to pen his own play after an night of less-than-pleasant theater. However, as the characters he invents that evening come to life, he finds they have their own opinions on how things should progress.

Join us on Opening Night for a special reception with the author, Ron Hill!  Punch, coffee and hors d’oeuvres will be served beginning at 7:00 p.m.   

CAST:

Sid – Steve Koenig
Laura – Mindie Ottney

Fremont Community Theatre and Director Pete Lowry are pleased to present RED, WHITE AND TUNA by by Ed Howard, Joe Sears and Jaston Williams.

The much anticipated third installment in the Tuna trilogy takes the audience through another satirical ride into the hearts and minds of the polyester–clad citizens of Texas’ third smallest town. Along with Tuna’s perennial favorites, some new denizens burst into the 4th of July Tuna High School Class Reunion. This sets the stage for a show full of fireworks and fun from the land where the Lion’s Club is too literal and Patsy Cline never dies.

The show is a two-man show with the 19 different characters assigned per the list below:

PERFORMED BY MAN #1:
Amber Windchime – Flower child, former Tuna resident
Arles Struvie – A disc jockey at radio station OKOK, now in a relationship with Bertha Bumiller
Petey Fisk – Employee of the Greater Tuna Humane Society
Charlene Bumiller – Daughter of Bertha Bumiller and brother to Stanley; now a military bride
Stanley Bumiller – Taxidermist, now residing in Albuquerque
Vera Carp – Town snob and leader of the Prayer Posse
Didi Snavely – Owner of Didi’s Used Weapons (“If we can’t kill it, it’s immortal”)
Helen Bedd – co-owner of “Helen & Inita’s Hot-to-Trot Catering”
Garland Poteet – Soda dispenser and one of Helen’s many boyfriends

PERFORMED BY MAN #2:
Star Birdfeather – Flower child, former Tuna resident
Thurston Wheelis – A disc jockey at radio station OKKK
Elmer Watkins – spokesperson for Free White Texas
Bertha Bumiller – Housewife and mother to Jody, Stanley, and Charlene, now in a relationship with Arles Struvie
Pearl Burras – Aunt to Bertha, whose potato-salad recipe is prize-winning
Joe Bob Lipsey – the “not-the-marrying-kind” director of the Tuna Little Theater
R.R. Snavely – UFOlogist and husband to Didi, now returned to Tuna
Inita Goodwin – co-owner of “Helen & Inita’s Hot-to-Trot Catering”
Leonard Childers – Entrepreneur and radio personality on OKKK
The Reverend Spikes – Now out of prison

The cast is Michael PJ Foos and Tim Bolton, who will be reprising many of their roles from A TUNA CHRISTMAS and will be adding some new ones for this production!

RED, WHITE AND TUNA will be presented on January 29-31 and February 5-7, 2016 with special permission from Samuel French.

This show has a suggested rating of PG-13.

Tickets are $15.00; Student/Senior tickets are $12.00 and will go on sale in January. For a HUGE savings on adult and senior tickets, it’s not to late for a Season Ticket purchase!

Thank you to all who chose to give to FCT on #GivingTuesday 2015!

“We have a day for giving thanks. We have two for getting deals. Now, we have #GivingTuesday, a global day dedicated to giving back. On Tuesday, December 1, 2015, charities, families, businesses, community centers, and students around the world will come together for one common purpose: to celebrate generosity and to give.

It’s a simple idea. Just find a way for your family, your community, your company or your organization to come together to give something more. Then tell everyone you can about how you are giving. Join us and be a part of a global celebration of a new tradition of generosity.” givingtuesday.org

Last year, we set a goal of $1,500.00 last year, and raised more than $1,600.00 in less than 24 hours, with a $500.00 matching employer payment coming in the following month.  This was by far the most successful fundraising drive FCT has had in years.

So we’re doing it again!  This year, on December 1, 2015, we ask that you please consider donating to FCT as part of your way to give back.  We are proud to be “more than a stage in your life” and hope that we can continue to be so in the future!  All donations dated December 1, 2015 will count toward our fundraising efforts that day, whether by check or credit card.  We’d like very much to at least match last year’s giving!

Feel free to donate using the button below, or by sending a check made out to Fremont Community Theatre (Fremont Community Teen Theatre or Fremont Community Youth Theatre, if you wish to support the kids), dated December 1, 2015.  We appreciate your giving!
