The community theaters all have intriguing plays to offer
this season. The Barn Theatre, in Stuart, presents Noises Off in
March. Brimming with slapstick comedy, it’s a farce, complete
with slamming doors, falling trousers and — of course
— flying sardines.
“The Barn Theatre is no longer just another community
theater,” says theater President Chris Mazzella. “Though we
may be a smaller theater, we now have the technical infrastructure
to be as good as any regional theater and to support
even the most demanding musicals or plays. We expect our
season to shine and continue to have sold-out audiences.”
The Vero Beach Theatre Guild has a packed season that
includes the global phenomenon Jesus Christ Superstar in
March, Moonlight and Magnolias in May and Always a Bridesmaid
in January.
In Fort Pierce, the Pineapple Playhouse offers The Bare
Truth in January and February about a senior couple trying
to get their children to leave them alone. Harvey and Calendar
Girls round out the spring show schedule.
There will be plenty for music lovers with performances
from the Treasure Coast Singers, the Treasure Coast Choral
Society, the Atlantic Classical Orchestra, the Space Coast
Symphony Orchestra, which plays in Vero Beach, and the
Vero Beach Opera with the delightful Barber of Seville and a
competition for aspiring opera singers.
Get that calendar out and start writing because this will be
a season you won’t want to miss.
Young Frankenstein was a hit at the Barn Theatre in Stuart. This season, the
comedy Noises Off will also have audiences howling with laughter.
