Footlight Frenzy
written by Ron House, Alan Shearman, Diz White, Bud Slocumb
directed by Brian M. Touchette
asst. directed by Kathleen Mooney
Before The Play That Goes Wrong and Noises Off, there was Footlight Frenzy! In a desperate attempt to save their bankrupt “School for Unusual Children,” an inexperienced PTA group valiantly mounts an ambitious benefit play written by a has-been Broadway director. His near-hysterical direction and the group’s questionable talent turn the production into a shambles. This hilarious story shifts from the dramatic (and at times over dramatic) tribulations of the performers’ real lives to the play they are “performing.” The audience sees this fast and furious story from the best seat in the house … the “back” of the stage!
