Winner! Best of Fest at the 2014 Out of the Loop Fringe Festival ROBERT'S ETERNAL GOLDFISH Written and Performed by Brad McEntire In this solo show by Brad McEntire, the audience comes face to face with Mr. Robert J. Roberts. Roberts has a huge problem with people. All people. One day he becomes the unlikely custodian of a magical goldfish and Mr. Roberts' misanthropic view of the world is seriously challenged. McEntire's an expert at swimming solo onstage, charming the audience with sly looks and inventive storytelling. ~ Elaine Liner, Dallas Observer Robert’s Eternal Goldfish works, and McEntire does everything perfectly in his writing, only overshadowing it with his stellar performance in it! ~ Richard Blake, PegasusNews.com Like a cross between Seinfeld’s George Costanza and comedian Lewis Black. ~ Nancy Churnin, DallasNews.com One of McEntire’s many talents is being able to couch very real meditations on life into extraordinary stories. ~ Kris Noteboom, TheaterJones.com Playing as part of the 2014 Out of the Loop Fringe Festival WaterTower Theatre at the Addison Theatre Centre Stone Cottage Theatre 15650 Addison Road, Addison, TX 75001 Friday March 7 – 7:00 pm Saturday March 8 – 8:00 pm Sunday March 9 – 5:00 pm TICKETS: Single tickets to all events go on sale Feb. 18.

Her monologue, accompanied by a short film, chronicles her challenges and her ongoing battle to beat severe peanut allergy. BOUNCING UGLY -- written and performed by Danny O'Connor. A series of stories about the hopes and struggles of an actor working a night job as a bouncer at NYC's rough-and-tumble Coyote Ugly bar. THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM -- written and directed by Bruce R.

I BROUGHT HOME A CHUPACABRA -- written by Brad McEntire; directed by Ruth Engel-McEntire; performed by Lauren Moore. A young woman finds a semi-mysthical beast on a hike and brings it home. During the next few days she is forced to figure out why she connects better with animals than people. MELVA TOSTI ATTENDS CAREER DAY -- written and performed by Andi Allen. Aging opera diva Melva Tosti is invited to speak at Mario Lanza High School Career Day. Answering questions off cards, Madame Tosti shares stories of her life as the "Diva Formaggio." OSTINATO -- written and directed by Natalie Gaupp; performed by Katie Weekley. With the Yeats poem "He Who Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven" as background, a meaningless but obsessively consuming act -- making mac and cheese -- becomes a metaphor for a life devoured by banality. SHE ALWAYS PICKED ME -- Written and directed by Kate Lowry; performed by Dillon Sherrod. A look at love and what happened between friends. TYLER'S MOM -- written by Benjamin Schroth; directed by Greg Phillips. Tyler's mom is having a rough morning. She sits down at the kitchen table and unloads on topics of life, death and pets. |
