Theatre 98 will open the doors to its second play of the season on Friday, April 20, with the wickedly fun comedy, “Fuddy Meers,” directed by Anastasia Arnold Ferrell.

This play, by David Lindsay-Abaire, is a roller coaster ride through a zany plot by turns harrowing and hilarious, and focuses on a woman named Claire (played by Catherine Phillips) who, because of a brain injury, wakes up every morning with no memory of what has happened before.

On this particular morning, Claire is greeted first by a man who claims to be her husband, Richard (played by Mark Swalley) then is hustled off by a limping, half-deaf man (played by Timothy Guy) who says he’s her brother.

The outrageous cast of characters she meets along the way includes her sullen teenaged son, Kenny (played by Ryan Peacock); her aphasic mother, Gertie (played by Melanie Lender); Millet (played by Jeff Marcella), an idiot thug with a foul-mouthed hand puppet; and a claustrophobic cop, Heidi (played by Anita Havel).

Sound too weird to be funny? Trust us, you won’t think so as this comedy keeps you laughing and guessing, along with Claire, at what really counts as a normal day.

The play runs April 20-22, 25-29. Showtimes are 8 p.m. weekdays and Saturdays, and 2:30pm on Sundays.

Reservations are highly recommended. Adult tickets are $15.

The box office is open Monday-Saturday, from 5:15-7:15 p.m.
