Charlie, David and I usually don’t do much for Valentine’s Day. Although David has taken me out to dinner in the past. Although I always purchase something for Charlie. With Charlie getting older it’s been movies or games for his Play Station the last couple years.
This year I have a surprise for both David and Charlie. I was given tickets to see a new musical comedy called The Boyfriend on Valentine’s Day. With this new play being held in Farmers Branch, TX. I will be taking us out to dinner as well.
Allowing us to venture into a new City and try new things. I can’t wait since none of us have been to Frisco in a while because this will allow us to spend some quality time together. Once we see this new Comedy Charlie will be able to share the event with his teachers giving him extra credit.
The Firehouse Theatre is set to open the romantic farce The Boy Friend on Valentine’s Day. The musical runs February 14 – March 3, 2019.
DALLAS, Texas – January 30, 2019 – The 1920’s musical comedy is set against the backdrop of the French Riviera and tells the story of Polly (Morgan Maxey), a English heiress interested in one thing: finding a boyfriend (Gabriel Ethridge). Polly’s father forbids her from dating for fear that any man courting her is only after her family’s money. Polly hides who she really is from the boy she loves and a hilarious show filled with mistaken identity ensues.
The role of Polly marked Julie Andrews’ American stage debut. The G-rated comedy is suitable for all ages and ran for over 2,000 performances starting with its 1954 debut, making it briefly the third-longest running musical in West End or Broadway history.
Fans of Thoroughly Modern Millie and The Drowsy Chaperone will love this spoof on old fashioned comedies.
Showtimes are Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night at 7:30 pm and Saturday and Sunday afternoons at 2:30 pm.
Tickets start at $14 and can be purchased at the Box Office (972-620-3747) or online at thefirehousetheatre.com. Special ticket pricing for groups and students are available.
