Auditions for Fast Freddie and That Darn Time Travelin' Thingamabob

Aug. 10 (2019)

Howdy, y’all! Welcome to the Sunshine Saloon. Sit down, have a drink, and get ready to embark on the wildest adventure of ALL time.

After coming into possession of a small meteor, Mr. Charles thinks he’s found the perfect sideshow attraction to help his business grow. Unfortunately, everything goes wrong when the meteor turns out be a time traveling thingamabob. Suddenly, a whole slew of wacky characters arrive at the Sunshine Saloon, each of them drawn to the meteor’s unusual power. Leading the pack is Fast Freddie, a cowboy on a mission to stop time from collapsing. ‘Fast Freddie & That Darn Time Travelin’ Thingamabob’ is a time traveling western that’ll have audiences hooting and hollering as each scene unfolds a unique and alternate reality. Soon the truth will be a thing of the past.
