Get ready to laugh! From October 12th through 15thour talented community thespians will bring you A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum.

Directed by Robert Cottle, this musical is a nonstop laughfest in which Pseudolus, a crafty slave (played by the hilarious Kyle Stivers), struggles to win the hand of a beautiful, but slow-witted, courtesan named Philia (Rachel Elkins) for his young master, Hero (Joshua Davis), in exchange for freedom.

The plot twists and turns with cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors, and a showgirl or two.

This unforgettable, hysterical musical allows a terrific ensemble of comedic actors to shine – “something for everyone, a comedy tonight!” 

Thursday through Saturday shows are at 7:30pm. The Sunday show starts at 3pm. Tickets are just $25 and can be purchased online here.
