Fremont Community Theatre is stepping into its 70th year with a season that honors the past while embracing fresh, exciting performances for a new generation of theatre lovers. The celebration kicked off with Rodgers & Hammerstein’s State Fair this September, a feel-good musical that set the tone for what’s to come.

Up next, audiences can look forward to the larger-than-life fun of Shrek The Musical in December 2025, the spine-chilling suspense of Misery in January 2026, and the deeply moving Tony Award-winning Fun Home in March 2026.

This milestone season is more than a collection of shows, it’s a tribute to the community, creativity, and countless volunteers who’ve kept Fremont’s stage lights shining for 70 years. Whether you’re a longtime patron or new to FCT, this is one anniversary season you won’t want to miss.

This week on Stage Door, Kyle is joined by two special guests from Genoa Civic Theatre: director Tony Esposito and longtime member (and current president) Brenda Clough. Together, they share the story of this “biggest little theater group this side of the Maumee,” from its 40-year history in Genoa’s historic Town Hall to their upcoming comedy, A Little Murder Never Hurt Anybody. It’s a classic murder mystery farce packed with laughs, lies, and maybe a little love.
