Civic Presents Celebrities Act Up: TV LAND LIVE!
Gilligan and his fellow castaways are stranded on an island with Archie and Edith Bunker, George and "Weezy" Jefferson and The Golden Girls! It's an awfully small island for these Celebrity Castaways to live on together! It's survival of the craziest! Will Dorothy dominate Skipper to get off the island? Will Blanche and the Professor conduct scientific experiments together? Will Archie and George sacrifice Gilligan to escape the madness?
Don't miss this hilarious opportunity to see local CEO's, community leaders and celebrities live on stage in celebration of the Fort Wayne Civic Theatre's 90th Anniversary!
