Croons, tunes, and celebrations


Mrs. Showtime on the mic

A quirky man plus a quirky birthday ritual can only translate into – well – a quirky play. Tune in for Firehouse Theatre’s newest endeavor, Krapp’s Last Tape, with limited in-house seating or virtual performances. Opens Thursday, Feb. 4 and runs through Saturday, Feb. 20.

Though the legendary Johnny Crawford (son of “The Rifleman”) was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, his legacy remains. To commemorate that very legacy this weekend, tune into the Johnny Crawford Online Celebration & Fundraiser, featuring games, panel discussions, and very special screenings of some of Crawford’s finest work. Friday, Feb. 5 through Saturday, Feb. 6 online.
