The North Platte Community College Theater Department will present the David Lindsay-Abaire comedy, “Fuddy Meers” at 8 p.m. on April 3-6, at NPCC’s McDonald-Belton Theater.
This poignant and brutal comedy traces one woman’s attempt to regain her memory while surrounded by a curio-cabinet of alarmingly bizarre characters. The play follows Claire who has a rare form of psychogenic amnesia that erases her memory whenever she goes to sleep. This particular morning, like all mornings, she wakes up a blank slate.
Every twist and turn in this funhouse plot bring Claire closer to revealing her past life and everything she thought she’d forgotten. It is one harrowing and hilarious turn after another on this roller coaster ride through the day of an amnesiac trying to decipher her fractured life.
Ritch Galvan, NPCC theatre instructor and play director notes, “Though this play is a comedy, it deals with a very serious subject. I am hoping it touches the audience and brings awareness to the possible destructive nature of violence in a family.”
This play contains adult themes and subject matter and is intended for mature audiences. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for seniors. Tickets can be purchased at the door.
