What’s Happening EVENTS FOR CULPEPER, FAUQUIER, MADISON, ORANGE AND RAPPAHANNOCK COUNTIES
FAUQUIER COUNTY JAN. 27
COMEDY ON STAGE •
The Fauquier Community Theatre presents Steve Martin’s “Underpants.” The renowned comic actor and author of Picasso at the Lapine Agile, Steve Martin, provides a wild satire adapted from the classic German play about Louise and Theo Markes, a couple whose conservative existence is shattered when Louise’s bloomers fall down in public. Though she pulls them up quickly, he thinks the incident will cost him his job as a government clerk. Louise’s momentary display does not result in the feared scandal but it does attract two infatuated men, each of whom wants to rent the spare room in the Markes’ home. Oblivious of their amorous objectives, Theo splits the room between them, happy to collect rent from both the foppish poet and the whiny hypochondriac. Plays Jan. 27, 28, 29 and Feb. 3, 4, 5, 10, 11, 12. Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. Adults $16, seniors (60+) $14, Students/ Children (ages 3 -18) $14.
