Show Synopsis:  Florence Unger and Olive Madison are at it again in this hilarious female version of a comic classic. Instead of the poker party that begins the original version, Ms. Madison has invited the girls over for an evening of Trivial Pursuit. The Pidgeon sisters have been replaced by the two Constanzuela brothers, but the hilarity remains the same!  Come see the funny problems that arise from the two roommates who couldn’t be more opposite in personality and lifestyle.


Director Toni King will be leading the Open Reading.  FRUITCAKES will be the last show in the 2020 Encore Productions Season.  This event is very casual, free to attend and open to anyone!  Participants will be randomly assigned roles to read and the script will be read aloud from start to finish.  This is great opportunity to hear the story of the script and get a feel for the characters if you are interested in auditioning for this event in August.  Usually readings end around 8pm.

Her show ran for 11 yrs.  You can’t miss the chance to see the scripts to some of her best comedic sketches, as originally performed by the unsurpassed team of Carol, Harvey Korman, Tim Conway & Vickie Lawrence, come to life onstage!  With some of your favorite characters like the Old Folks, you’re sure to laugh until your sides hurt!
