SHEAR MADNESS Extended Through April 3

By:

Shear Madness at Florida Studio Theatre has been held over through April 3, due to popular demand. The hit show opened on Friday, February 25, and was originally slated for a two-week run.
Shear Madness returns for a second go-around at FST after a nine-week sold-out run last season. Shear Madness is an interactive murder mystery where the audience gets to solve the crime. Join your favorite salon owner Tony, his gum-chewing assistant, Barbara, and the rest of the gang as they piece together the crime scene after a murder happens upstairs.

The remaining performance schedule (added performances in red):
Tuesday 3/22 @ 8 p.m.
Wednesday 3/23 @ 8 p.m.
Thursday 3/24 @ 8 p.m.
Friday 3/25 @ 8 p.m.
Saturday 3/26 @ 8 p.m.
Sunday 3/27 @ 3 p.m.
Wednesday 3/30 @ 8 p.m.
Thursday 3/31 @ 8 p.m.
Friday 4/1 @ 8 p.m.
Saturday 4/2 @ 8 p.m.

The dynamic cast includes Michael Kevin Baldwin as "light on his toes" Tony Whitcomb, Juliana Black as the sassy stylist Barbara DeMarco, Joseph Ditmyer as bad boy antiques dealer Eddie Lawrence, Jeremy Ellison-Gladstone as gumshoe detective Mikey Thomas, Timothy Goodwin as loud-mouth detective Nick O'Brien, and Lisa McMillan as the wealthy socialite Mrs. Schubert. Baldwin, Black, Ditmyer, and Goodwin all return to the Gompertz stage after performing in Shear Madness during last season's run.


Known as Sarasota's Contemporary Theatre, Florida Studio Theatre was founded in 1973 by Jon Spelman. Starting out as a small touring company, FST traveled to places such as migrant camps and prisons. The company eventually settled down into a permanent home, acquiring the former Woman's Club building -now renamed the Keating Theatre. In the years that followed, Florida Studio Theatre established itself as a major force in American Theatre, presenting contemporary theatre in its three theatre venues: the Keating Theatre, the Goldstein Cabaret and its newest space, the Gompertz Theatre.

Even with its growth, Florida Studio Theatre remains firmly committed to making the arts accessible and affordable to a broad-based audience. Under Richard Hopkins, Artistic Director and CEO, FST develops theatre that speaks to our living, evolving, and dynamically changing world. As FST grows and expands, it continues to provide audiences with challenging, contemporary drama and innovative programs.
