The productions at this theater far exceed what one would expect from a town of this size. The cast and crew are all volunteers. The sets are wonderful, setting the tone for each production. The actors devote many hours to rehearsals and performances and do a great job. Highly recommend!
This community theater group is loaded with wonderful talent. Staging is outstanding. Hard to believe such a small community has such a fantastic theater venue.....but it does.
The Fredericksburg Theater Company, through highly accomplished direction, and convincing acting, delivered the very poignant story that Neil Simon wrote for his Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Lost in Yonkers. The challenging role of Bella, the mentally challenged lead character was portrayed with compassion and sensitivity, and delivered the powerful message that Neil Simon so skillfully wrote. Simply put, this was an outstanding production of a great play.
We bought tickets to opening night of Blithe Spirit, and were extremely impressed by the facilities, the organization, opening night fare, and most especially the talent exhibited at FTC. Some of the most comfortable seating of any theater anywhere! Definitely recommend checking out FTC.
What a wonderful show. We loved the theater. It is small and you really get to see the performers up close. The show was like a broadway production. We will return - soon.!!
The recent FTC production of Les Miserables was there best musical during the nine years that I have seen their productions, and the cast had voices and acting ability that could have carried them on any stage...amateur or professional. The voices, the acting, costumes, lighting, the revolving set, and directing were exceptional. Having been involved with the management of one of the major showrooms in Las Vegas (now retired), I can honestly say that this production was as inspirational and rousing as any I have seen, or been involved with. The audience was standing for the full chorus during the last several minutes of the final number. We all wished that the curtain had stayed up all night. This is the best entertainment venue in the Hill Country of Texas! Period.
We attended a performance of The Fantasticks in August. Nice seating throughout the house. Well presented old musical. Very talented and enthusiastic young cast. We would definitely recommend this to anyone who is in the area.
I ordered my tickets on line for this summer's production of The Fantasticks and there was no problem in securing the five that I needed. This was to be the first time theater experience for my Grand-daughters and it could not have been better. The theater building is a delight and a real gem in the Hill Country. The production was first rate and my girls spent the remainder of the week singing the songs that they heard that night. When asked at the end of the two week visit, what was the best part this theater was the unanimous choice. We will plan to do this every summer for it was just FANTASTICK! Thank you for being alive and well in the hills of Texas.
Being from the Dallas/Ft. Worth theater community, I greatly missed live theater when I moved to Mason in 2012.. I am thrilled to report that I have found my new theater "home" at Fredericksburg Theater Company. It rivals anything in the Metroplex and offers an alternative for entertainment that is a bit harder to find in the Hill Country without a significant commute. I could not be happier and now truly feel at home in the Hill Country! Bravo!
The Rock Box theatre does a fantastic job with every production I have ever seen. Had the privilege of seeing the George and Friends show this weekend and really impressed with the talent displayed. Thoroughly entertaining, not a bad seat in the house.And if you get the chance, try and get to the annual Christmas production. It is always fun! For a local theatre, the talent is really fantastic and the shows well done.
