FT_Bourbon at the Border logoBOURBON AT THE BORDER
Falcon Theatre
Aug. 5-14
[Newport]

Directed by Piper N. Davis

Cast: Torrie Wiggins* as May, Dathan Hooper* as Charlie, Kyndra Jefferies as Rosa & James Christian Jr. as Tyrone

When May and Charlie joined hundreds of other Americans who went to Mississippi in the summer of 1964 for a massive voter registration drive, they had no idea their lives were about to change forever. As students at Howard University, their campus activism had been met with calls to their parents and threats of expulsion. The stakes in Mississippi were a lot higher. White supremacists, outraged at the challenge to their segregated way of life, responded with violence that left three civil rights workers dead and many wounded. Soon after, President Johnson deployed thousands of American soldiers to fight the Vietnam War. Four decades later, their heroic fight for racial justice and freedom still haunt them as they struggle to make sense of their lives and look for hope in their future.

BBTC_The Fantasticks logoTHE FANTASTICKS
Bare Boards Theatre Company
July 28-30
Wilmington Performing Arts Studio

Cast: Rachel Beck as Narrator, Jennah Blair as The Girl, Sterling Goodwin as The Boy, Cole Haugh as The Actor, Timothy Larrick at the Piano, Grace Vance as The Mute, Bekah Wall as the Boy’s Father, Bryan Wallingford as the Girl’s Father & Jess Yankel as The Man Who Dies

The Fantasticks is a funny and romantic musical about a boy, a girl, and their two fathers who try to keep them apart. The narrator asks the audience to use their imagination and follow them all into a world of moonlight and magic. The boy and the girl fall in love, grow apart and finally find their way back to each other after realizing the truth in the narrator’s words that, “without a hurt, the heart is hollow.”

Its moving tale of young lovers who become disillusioned, only to discover a more mature, meaningful love is punctuated by a bountiful series of catchy, memorable songs, many of which have become classics.
