Music Theatre of Connecticut (MTC) MainStage, Fairfield County’s award-winning professional theatre company, continues its 38th season with Ken Ludwig’s Moon Over Buffalo. This riotous comedy is a wild ride of eccentric characters, a show-within-a show, and a hilarious love triangle. The production runs from February 7th through the 23rd with performances on Fridays at 8pm, Saturdays at 2pm & 8pm, Sundays at 2pm.
In the madcap spirit of Lend Me a Tenor, Moon Over Buffalo is a riotous farce about George and Charlotte Hay, fading stars of the 1950s, who are performing Private Lives and Cyrano de Bergerac in Buffalo, New York. Their hopes of stardom are reignited when they learn Frank Capra is coming to see their matinee, with a potential movie role on the line. But chaos takes center stage as George’s dalliance with a young ingénue sparks marital drama, their daughter’s clueless fiancé adds to the confusion, and Charlotte’s sharp-tongued, hard-of-hearing mother wreaks havoc backstage. With mistaken identities and endless mix-ups, this fast-paced comedy delivers non-stop laughs as everything that can go wrong does!

Review: MOON OVER BUFFALO at Music Theatre of Connecticut
February 10, 2025 There is no better time than now for Music Theatre of Connecticut’s production of Moon Over Buffalo. Or maybe playwright Ken Ludwig should have called it Loons Over Buffalo. This slapstick comedy is sidesplittingly funny about a fading stage couple who still dream of fame and fortune but are reduced to performing repertory in slumping venues.
