| | Lot o'Shakespeare
Saturday, October 19, 2024 at Ocala Civic Theatre.
Acclaimed actor and writer Tim Mooney brings his one-man show Lot o’ Shakespeare to Ocala Civic Theatre.
All the world’s a stage, and dramatic dynamo Tim Mooney plays all the roles upon it in this dazzling tour de force performance. The author of the award-winning, wildly funny Breakneck Shakespeare play series, Tim has memorized a monologue from every one of Shakespeare’s comedies, tragedies, and histories. It’s a thrilling and hilarious whirlwind as Tim performs the best of the Bard’s stirring speeches, soliloquies, and sonnets.
Lot o’ Shakespeare might best be described as “Shakespeare, but make it bingo.” Tim’s material includes 38 monologues and six sonnets, drawn at random through audience participation, with as many as two dozen monologues in a single hour-long performance. The lines and laughs come lightning-fast in this highly interactive show as the audience plays along in a bingo game. Prizes include T-shirts, coffee mugs, books, and stickers for the lucky winners. Lot o’ Shakespeare is a lot of fun – epic, outrageous, wicked, glorious fun. Join us for this wild ride!

| | The Glass Menagerie
By Tennessee Williams
RATED PG
On Stage
November 7-24, 2024
In 1930s St. Louis, faded Southern belle Amanda Wingfield lives in poverty with her two grown children. Son Tom has unwillingly supported the family since his father abandoned them. Daughter Laura, as fragile as her collection of glass animals, is crippled by shyness and a limp. He seeks escape in alcohol and movies, while she withdraws into music. But when a “gentleman caller” visits their dingy apartment, the family’s world of illusions is shattered. Tender and tragic, this ethereal memory play is a classic of American theatre.

| | Concert for Good
On Stage
December 28, 2024 at 7:30 p.m.
We believe 'tis always the season for giving. In 2021, we got a group of community-minded local musicians (who happen to be "youngish") together to put on a concert for the sole purpose of raising funds for local nonprofits. With an outpouring of support from sponsors and packed houses, the event has raised $55,000 for Brother's Keeper and the Marion County Children's Alliance. Our community is so generous. God is so good. Our hope is that coming together "for good" at this time, when the calendar says the holidays have passed, reminds us all that gratitude and generosity are always in season.

RUNTIME: About 1 hour & 45 minutes NO INTERMISSION
