Intrepid adventurer Phileas Fogg risks his reputation, his fortune and his very life when he wagers that he can circumnavigate the globe in a record-breaking 80 days! Accompanied by his loyal valet, Passepartout, he sets off by land, sea and air on a whirlwind odyssey across all seven continents. Facing perils ranging from typhoons to elephant stampedes to runaway trains, the resourceful duo perseveres. But as they rush to beat the clock, they face an even greater danger: a relentless detective in hot pursuit who believes that Fogg is a bank robber on the run!
Packed with hilarious situations and thrilling action, the race—and the chase—are on! Five actors portray 39 characters in this rollicking adaptation of Jules Verne’s classic tale, "Around the World in 80 Days!"

"Beehive: The 60's Musical"
Created by Larry Gallagher
Directed by Sarah Wiggin
July 8-11 & 13-18
8 p.m.
Tent Theatre’s 2021 season was curtailed by the COVID pandemic. Only four performances of each show were presented, and many Tent patrons were unable to attend that year’s production of "Beehive: The 60’s Musical."
Now this fan favorite is back for a full run! Immerse yourself in the story of six young women coming of age to the vibrant soundtrack of the Sixties. From plaintive love songs (“Be My Baby,” “Sweet Talkin’ Guy,” “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?”) and bouncy pop tunes (“It’s My Party,” “You Can’t Hurry Love,” “One Fine Day”) to soulful R&B (“Chain of Fools,” “Son of a Preacher Man,” “Proud Mary,” “Never Loved a Man [The Way I Love You]”) and powerful anthems of the emerging women’s movement (“You Don’t Own Me,” “Respect”).
"Beehive: The 60’s Musical" packs more than 30 timeless hits into one powerful blast from the past!
