Good Theater continues its 18th season with the Maine premiere of the hilarious two-hander POPCORN FALLS by James Hindman. The production opens January 8th and plays through February 2nd, 2020 at Good Theater's home, the St. Lawrence Arts Center, 76 Congress Street, Portland. For tickets and information, please call the Box Office at (207) 835-0895 or visit www.goodtheater.com.


What do you get when you mix WAITING FOR GUFFMAN with GREATER TUNA? James Hindman's POPCORN FALLS! A hit off-Broadway last season, POPCORN FALLS is the story of a small town forced into bankruptcy when a neighboring town threatens to turn them into a sewage treatment plant. Their solution? Put on a show! Two actors play 21 characters in this high-energy, laugh-filled 90 minute race to save their beloved town. Hailed by the New York Stage Review as "a perfect tonic to restore faith in humanity", POPCORN FALLS is the perfect way to kick off your new year.

POPCORN FALLS stars Nathan Gregory and Phillip Hobby as all 21 contrasting characters. Good Theater co-founder Stephen Underwood directs with Jared Mongeau assisting, and Michael Lynch stage manages. POPCORN FALLS will feature costume design by Justin Cote, lighting design by Iain Odlin, scenic and sound design by Stephen Underwood, and prop design by Jared Mongeau.


POPCORN FALLS plays Wednesdays at 7:00 ($25), Thursdays at 7:00 ($25), Fridays at 7:30 ($25), Saturdays at 3:00 ($32) and 7:30 ($32) and Sundays at 2:00 ($32). Tickets may be purchased online by visiting the company's website www.goodtheater.com or calling the box office at (207) 835-0895.
