HERE IS THE SHOW STORY:
?And now for something completely different?? The famous quote by Monty Python is a perfect description of Friday night?s ?Chautauqua Radio Companion? at the Florida Chautauqua Theater on Baldwin Avenue at 7:00pm. The show is an updated version of an old-fashioned radio show, with music and comedy taking center stage.
?We are so fortunate to have Dread Clampitt on board as the house band for the show?, said Carol Puckett, who co-authored the script with her husband, Chuck. ?They are an amazing group of musicians with a huge following locally and nationally. How lucky is it that Balder (lead member of Dread Clampitt) and Jennifer Steele-Saunders live right here in DeFuniak and have both been so supportive and willing to add whatever we?ve needed to make this a truly unforgettable show??
They will be joined by special guests Walton County?s Matt Miller, everyone?s favorite fiddling prodigy, and Ruthie Puckett, who sings with her North Alabama band, Bimini Road.
Jennifer Steele-Saunders has assembled some of the best talent from the Seaside Repertory Theater to form the Chautauqua Radio Players of the Air. They will delight the audience with a huge range (over thirty) of characters- from George Bush to Bill Clinton, as well as spokesmen for Haggis Cat Food (?when you don?t want fat cats on your doormat?) and the Mullet Advisory board. These are just a few of the satirical sketches and commercials that will keep the audience in stitches between musical numbers.
Local and national media personality Sonny Yates will lend his talents as the show's announcer. ?Sonny has added the perfect tone to the production, pulling everything together with his considerable expertise at the microphone as well as his unbounded knowledge of Walton County and the people of Walton County over the years,? said Puckett.
?This is a show you will not want to miss?, said Chuck Puckett (who is also serving as a member of the Radio Players). ?It?s one people will be talking about for a long time.?
Tickets are $15.00 and will be available at the Hall of Brotherhood during the Assembly. For more information, you may call the Chautauqua office at 892-3696 or order online at:
