Fremont Opera House Presents "Moon over Buffalo"

Support community theater by attending "Moon over Buffalo"! This is an adult comedy production directed by Lee Meyer and starring Madeline McDonald and Brian Essen.

Moon over Buffalo is a madcap farce -- a zany look at life and love in the theatre.
 
Moon is told with typical twists, turns, collisions, mistaken identities, ridiculous mis-communications, slapstick antics, some terrifying swordplay. Add to all that a hostile, near-deaf mother-in-law, a couple of love triangles, an overly square weatherman, and a chance at stardom if Frank Capra (a real person
and famous Hollywood director from the 1950s) comes to see the play and chooses George and Charlotte for Hollywood roles.
 
The play charms us as much with its many moments of genuine affection between the family and company members as it does with the absurdly farcical moments. The characters, despite their egos and farcical foibles, become real for us in their tender moments. Moon over Buffalo reminds us in its best moments of a theatrical era that has slipped away from us and left us with lots of glitz and shine and fewer and fewer genuinely human moments.
