About The Hatmaker's Wife:

When a young couple moves into an old house, they soon discover its walls have stories to tell. As past and present collide, an eccentric hatmaker, his wife, and a missing hat become part of a magical journey exploring love, memory, and the meaning of home.

Filled with humor, imagination, and heartfelt moments, The Hatmaker's Wife reminds us that every home holds the stories of those who came before.

“I'm thrilled to work with the talented, dedicated staff at Firehouse and a fantastic cast and team of designers to bring The Hatmaker's Wife to life,” said Director Colby Bleicher. “This play is equal parts playful and poignant. It offers something I always hope to provide audiences: a chance to be moved -- to laughter, tears, or maybe both. Plus, there's a Cheeto-eating golem.”

The Hatmaker's Wife features the talents of: Verl Hite as Hetchman, Dia Kline as Hetchman's Wife, Bruce Laks as Meckel, Jordann Zbylski as Voice, Jaylin Wiese as Gabe/Golem and Corinne Landy as Wall.
