From the pen of one of the greatest comic geniuses of all time and set in an English country house in the 1920s, 鈥淗ay Fever鈥 is a rollicking comedy that offers what the New York Times called 鈥渁n evening of intoxicating escape.鈥 The play imagines one couple鈥檚 鈥渜uiet鈥 weekend getaway gone hilariously awry when the most unruly guests show up 鈥 their children. The Bliss family become embroiled in an outlandish family feud as this farcical comedy of manners descends into a flurry of comic mayhem leaving everyone breathless including the audience.
鈥淥nce Upon a Mattress鈥 is consistently ranked among the top five shows produced in the United States. This twice Tony-nominated musical (Best Revival of a Musical in 1970 and 1997) is a wonderfully funny and charming reimagined telling of the 鈥淧rincess and the Pea鈥 story. First starring Carol Burnett, 鈥淥nce Upon a Mattress鈥 has provided many great actresses the chance to shine. With reviews like 鈥渁s fresh, inventive and funny as ever鈥 and 鈥渁 hilariously nutty retelling of the beloved fairy tale,鈥 鈥淥nce Upon a Mattress鈥 is a musical comedy gem that is carried on a wave of wonderful songs, heartwarming romance and side-splitting story lines.
Festival Repertory Theatre also includes two big band concerts featuring hits from the 30s, 40s and 50s presented by the Florida Wind Symphony Jazz Orchestra under the direction of Kyle Prescott; and a four-piano gala extravaganza featuring Heather Coltman and friends.
Patrons can receive discounts on dining when they present their show tickets at the Living Room Theaters Restaurant, located next to the theaters. For information, visit fau.livingroomtheaters.com.
