Firehouse Theatre's New Season

2013-2014 SEASON LINE UP!!

LABELLE, FL. -- The Firehouse Theatre in LaBelle is offering a new line up of five entertaining plays this coming season. Season tickets will be available soon.

November 8, 9, 10, 15, 16, 17, 2013 - New Wrinkles, written by Rita Abrams, Morris Bobrow & Gerald Nachman and directed by Martha Pierce. This is our first production of the season.
About: New Wrinkles is a musical comedy about the trials and situations of growing old. The pains, perils, and poignancies of aging are served up in hilarious and heartfelt style in this clever, crowd-pleasing musical revue. Who knew angst could be so entertaining?

December 13, 14, 15, 20, 21, 22, 2013 - Dashing Through The Snow,by the playwright trio Jones, Hope, Wooten, and directed by Maureen Doucette. Dashing Through the Snow is this year's holiday offering."Dashing thru the snow is presented by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc., New York.”
About: The play takes place in the Snowflake Inn in Tinsel, Texas where it's Christmas 365 days a year. It's four days before Christmas and a parade of eccentric guests arrive at the Snowflake Inn and deck the halls with holiday hilarity. Trina, the harried yet upbeat innkeeper of this B&B, has more than she can handle coping with these nuttier-than-a-fruitcake lodgers.

January 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, 19, 2014 - Real Women Have Curves,written by Josefina Lopez and directed by Joel Hawkins. "Real Women Have Curves is presented by special arrangement with Dramatic Publishing, Woodstock, IL."
About: Set in a tiny sewing factory in East L.A., this story is the outrageously funny story of five Mexican-American women who are racing to meet nearly impossible production deadlines in order to keep their tiny factory from going under. This play, a microcosm of the Latina immigrant experience, celebrates real women's bodies, the power of women, and the incredible bond that happens when women work together.

February 21, 22, 23, 28, March 1, 2, 2014 - Lend Me A Tenor, written by Ken Ludwig and directed by Deb Kik. “Lend Me a Tenor is presented by special arrangement with SAMUEL FRENCH, Inc."

In 1934, the Cleveland Grand Opera Company, is primed to welcome world famous, Tito Morelli, "Il Stupendo", the greatest tenor of his generation, to appear for one night only as Otello. The star arrives late and, through a hilarious series of mishaps, is given a double dose of tranquilizers and passes out. In a frantic attempt to salvage the evening, stand ins are called upon and eventually there are two Otellos running around in costume! This madcap, screwball comedy is guaranteed to leave audiences teary-eyed with laughter.
