Well, hopefully we’ll be able to have some fun this weekend depending on Helene’s behavior, so please make sure you check the websites for cancellations due to weather, and please stay safe everyone!
New Theater Thursday
Ring of Fire – The Music of Johhny Cash
American Stage, DTSP
Ring of Fire – the jukebox musical that’ll take you on a wild ride through the music of one of America’s most iconic singer-songwriters, Johnny Cash. Through a series of vignettes, you’ll witness the highs and lows of life in 20th century rural America — the struggles, the triumphs, the loves lost and found. Though he is never impersonated, Johnny Cash’s remarkable life story is told through his music, climaxing in a concert that will both move and exhilarate! You won’t be able to resist singing along.
Now – Sunday, October 20th

Opening – The Second-To-Last Chance Ladie’s Club
Early Bird Dinner Theatre, Clearwater
It’s time for dinner and a show – in the same place! Early Bird Dinner Theatre is a great deal and the productions are excellent. In this comedy, best friends Libby Ruth, Deedra, Monette, and Charlie return to their beloved Laurelton Oaks, and together they ingeniously re-imagine the business as ‘Occasionally Yours’, a center for all kinds of gatherings and joyfully begin hosting retirement parties, baby showers, even memorial services. What could possibly go wrong? This rollicking and uproarious Jones Hope Wooten comedy will bring you endless joy and tears of laughter.

Race day sees 50,000 people and over 2,500 boats lining the beaches of the 2.5-mile-long race course with fireworks, parties, parades, and much more. Many beach-going spectators enjoy the races from Clearwater Beaches on the white sugar sand, while others take watch from the comfort of hotels, restaurants, and condos throughout the island. It’s a truly great event, so get out there!

Opening Night – What the Constitution Means to Me by Heidi Schreck
Stageworks Theatre, Tampa
Courtesy of Stageworks
Here’s a very compelling true story with some pretty great timing. If you love the Constitution, you’ll love this story seen through the eyes of the author from 15 to adulthood. Fifteen-year-old Heidi Schreck paid her college tuition by speaking in debate competitions across the country; now older, she tells the story of four generations of extraordinary women in her family whose lives were shaped by the Constitution. Don’t miss it.
