Same Time, Next Year
by Fredericksburg Theater Company (FTC)
Aug. 14 - Aug. 15 (2021)
Twenty-five years of manners and morals are hilariously and touchingly played out in this Tony award winning romantic comedy. In 1951, at a small California inn, George and Doris meet for the first time. The pair decide to meet at the inn every year for a romantic retreat, away from their respective spouses and families. In the decades that follow, both George and Doris face their own personal struggles and hardships, and together they develop a level of love and intimacy that exceeds their expectations.
