CASTING IS COMPLETE FOR MOON OVER BUFFALO!
Middlebury Community Players is excited to announce that casting is complete for our February 2026 production. Kevin Commins will direct the hilarious farce Moon over Buffalo, by Ken Ludwig, at Town Hall Theater February 19–22, 2026. Moon over Buffalo is a madcap play about a pair of aging traveling actors, George and Charlotte Hay, who are touring with two plays in Buffalo, New York. Their lives are thrown into chaos when they learn that a famous director, Frank Capra, might see their matinee performance and cast them in a movie remake of “The Scarlet Pimpernel.” The play is filled with mistaken identities, family drama, and theatrical mishaps.
Stay tuned for details!
