The Importance of Being Earnest
By Oscar Wilde
The Importance of Being Earnest is Oscar Wilde’s famous 1895 comedic play, a witty satire on Victorian society’s absurd conventions, particularly marriage, class, and morality, centered on two bachelors who invent fictional identities (like the name “Ernest”) to escape social obligations, leading to hilarious confusion and romantic entanglements.

SECOND STAGE
The Controversial Rescue Of Fatty The Pig
By Catherine Bush
Cherry Blevins’ house has burned down—her second house in five years. While trying to help save Cherry’s 300-pound pet pig, Fatty, from the flames, Cherry’s brother Floyd and his wife, Connie, are arrested for assault by local law enforcement officer Deputy Dwight Omuhundro. But did they truly assault Dwight? And what started the fire? And why in the world was Cherry keeping a pig for a pet?! As these four characters tell the judge their version of what happened that night and why, they begin to reveal not only the events leading up to the fire, but also all the lost hopes and dreams that make them what they are today. In doing so, they realize that the disappointments of the past don’t necessarily dictate the relationships of the future and that, by attempting to rescue Fatty the Pig, they may have miraculously rescued themselves.
Show Dates: November 13, 14, 20, 21 at 8:00 PM
Miracle On 34th Street
Adapted by Mountain Community Theater from the novel by Valentine Davies. Based upon the Twentieth Century Fox motion picture Miracle on 34th Street.
By chance, Kris Kringle, an old man in a retirement home, gets a job working as Santa for Macy’s. Kris unleashes waves of goodwill with Macy’s customers and the commercial world of New York City by referring parents to other stores to find exactly the toy their child has asked for. Seen as deluded and dangerous by Macy’s vocational counselor, who plots to have Kris shanghaied to Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital, Kris ends up in a court competency hearing. Especially at stake is one little girl’s belief in Santa. In a dramatic decision, the court confirms Kris as the true Santa, allowing Susan and countless other children to experience the joy of childhood fantasy.
