LAST WEEKEND FOR HOODWINKED

ONE LAST WEEKEND!
FREMONT COMMUNITY THEATRE PRESENTS
HOODWINKED
Music and lyrics by John Carlton and Steve Liebman.
Book by Bryan Leys, John Carlton and Steve Liebman.
There is only one more weekend for the 54 TH season opener, the musical farce
Hoodwinked,
October 9,10 and 11.
Hoodwinked is filled with foot stomping production numbers, soaring solos and duets that punctuate this hilarious romp through Sherwood Forest. Robin Hood (Jeff Buchanan of Gibsonburg) and his famous band of merry men come face to face with some very liberated women Grundela and Prith ( Hilary Frater and Brittney Forster both of Fremont). When the Sheriff of Nottingham (Dan Harlan of Fremont) captures Maid Marian (Kelly Fandrey of Bowling Green) for the umpteenth time, the ensuing antics involve such plots and ploys as Friar Tuck’s (T.J. Smith, Gibsonburg) confession concession, dancing bears, a strike by the Nottingham hangman’s local, the proclaiming of a holiday for villains and the liberation of Maid Marian in more ways than one.
The show also features, Tim Bolton, Alex Bigelow, Kayla and Randy Haase, Brandon Wurgess, Brian Knaup, Donielle Yates and Mandy Burris who also serves as Musical Director.
Here is a show where the men are a cross between Benny Hill and Errol Flynn and all the women would rather rescue themselves.
Make your reservations NOW!
Plenty of good seats are still available
for this hilarious musical romp through Sherwood Forest.
You won’t want to miss your opportunity to cheer for the hero,
hiss the villain or groan at the bad puns. This hard working cast brings some of the silliest and zaniest fun to the FCT stage in many a moon.
Mixed with songs presented in a wide variety of styles, there is sure to be a new favorite just waiting for you to leave the theatre humming.
If a carefree night of belly laughs and good fashioned shtick is what you’ve been needing, look no further, Robin Hood, Little John and the rest of the Merry men, along with helpless maidens, dancing bears and
high-jinx galore await you at HOODWINKED!

Presented in a style reminiscent of an old silent film, this playful, whimsical and slightly naughty fable throws all conventional theatrics out the castle window right into the moat. Premiered in Toledo, Ohio 30 years ago, the comic genius of the creative team remains fresh today.
This show could best be described as Men In Tights go to Spamalot, filed with silly songs, corny choreography and more one-line groaners than you can shake an arrow at!

A total cast of 14 and an ever so hard working pianist, Ethan Mandeville round out the production.The show is directed by FCT president Mitchell Antesky of Genoa with assistance from John Carroll of Fremont.

The curtain goes up on Friday and Saturday nights at 8 PM while the Sunday matinee is at 2 PM.
The theatre is located on Vanguard Place just off of Dickinson, north of Cedar Street in Fremont.
Tickets are $12 for adults and $10 for seniors and students.

Reservations should be made by calling 419-332-0695.
