The Brown County Playhouse proudly presents Doublewide, Texas — a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud comedy about a quirky group of trailer park neighbors doing everything they can to save their way of life… even if it means seceding from the state!
Show Dates: June 6, 7, 8, 13 & 14
In one of the smallest—and wackiest—trailer parks in the Lone Star State, the citizens of Doublewide are facing their biggest challenge yet: annexation by the town of Tugaloo.

Packed with outrageous characters, side-splitting twists, and plenty of Texas-sized heart, Doublewide, Texas is the feel-good comedy you won’t want to miss.

Beginners lesson at 7pm
A far cry from the cool, calculated distance and reserved posture that is all-too-familiar to the indie-rock sphere, Florry, the Philly-bred septet and songwriting vehicle of bandleader Francie Medosch, are marking their territory as a band resolving to do something very different: they are having a really good time out there.
Cutting her teeth in the Philadelphia DIY scene starting in 2019 as a student at Temple University, the early days of Florry found Medosch at the end of her teenage years releasing a slew of singles and EP’s in a familiar idiom of lo-fi bedroom recordings tinged with country melancholy. A lot has changed since then. Most importantly, perhaps, the project snowballed into a barn-burning seven piece rock band in the proceeding years; and without sacrificing any of the emotional immediacy that’s come to define Medosch’s brashly earnest, bleeding-heart lyrical style, you’re unlikely to find her lingering as much on the melancholy these days. Or, as Medosch plainly puts it in regards to Sounds Like… , the band’s forthcoming LP:

Join us for an evening with Russell S. Kitchner with a special presentation about his book, Alaska: Where There Was A Way, featuring the beauty of an untouched Alaska.
A Common Man in an Enchanted Land
This is the story of Will Kitchner who, in 1937 and age 19, traveled from his home in Syracuse, NY to Seattle, WA where he boarded a freighter bound for Alaska. During the following 4 years Will worked a gold claim northeast of Fairbanks and a fur-trapping line on the Salcha River before returning home to Syracuse where he passed away at age 38. His legacy was secured by Kodachrome slides he took in an effort to capture the timeless beauty of the largely unexplored Alaska Territory before it had been touched by the modern civilization.
