[/FONT][FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif][FONT=Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Seaside, FL - Imagine that every day, you awakened with no memory of who you are, where you are, how you got there, or what to do next. That's the premise of the surreal and hilarious comedy Fuddy Meers, which opens at the Seaside Repertory Theatre on Wednesday June 11, at 7:30pm. Fuddy Meers will run Wednesdays through Saturdays through July 26 at 7:30pm in the Meeting Hall Theatre. Tickets are $20 for members, and $24 for guests, and can be purchased online at www.seasiderep.org, or by calling the box office at 850-231-0733. The Rep's 2008 season has been sponsored by Pizitz Home and the Cottage Rental Agency.

The play tells the story of Claire, an amnesiac played by Rep newcomer Lacey Morgan Renteria, awaking in a strange room, with a strange man and an angry boy. Claire suffers from a strange form of amnesia which causes her slate to be wiped clean every evening while sleeping. If that sounds strange, then wait until you meet the rest of the oddball cast that includes a limping, lisping, deformed kidnapper (David Hopkins) and his moronic, foul-mouthed-puppet-wielding accomplice (Kevin Boyle). Fuddy Meers (which means "funny mirrors" in stroke-talk) is a laugh-a-minute roller coaster ride, the likes of which Rep audiences have never seen. Due to some strong language, mostly by the puppet, parental discretion is advised.


"....heady fun....fresh, zingy dialogue, which revels in warping the language of self-help books....Like the resourceful chef who turns leftovers into haute cuisine, Mr. Lindsay-Abaire blends clich?d ingredients into something savory and distinctive....[a] dark, sweet and thoroughly engaging comedy."

Ditto, thanks to all the people, including those behind the scenes, who brought us the REP and Fuddy Meers!

I look forward to the upcoming comedy shows. If you guys haven't seen some of these guys who will be performing, you are missing out. I think a few of them even have some hilarious youtube.com clips.

The internship shows should also be worth seeing and supporting.

All bearded men are now barecheeked and smooth as a baby's booty! And they all look like they are 15!:floor:

The REP is a true gem of Seaside

For those of you who did not see this play, you missed something wonderful. I look foreward to seeing all of the REP's plays in the future. All of the actors were incredible in their respective rolls. I especially loved Kevin Boyle as Millet (and Binky) and can't wait to see Fully Committed this December. Fantastic job people!!
