- "Moon Over Buffalo" presented by the Zionsville Off-Main Street Players at 8 pm at the Zionsville Town Hall (1100 W. Oak St., Zionsville). (Performances also on May 6 & 7.) To say George and Charlotte Hay (portrayed by Paul Gootee and Patricia Brennan See, both of Zionsville) have been on the road to fame is only half right. The veteran husband-and-wife acting duo have traveled long and far in their career, but fame has always eluded them. While performing a show in Buffalo, N.Y., a fateful phone call brings the promise of the bright lights of Hollywood. But will a series of mistaken identities and misadventures cause them to miss out on their big chance? That's the premise behind Ken Ludwig's "Moon Over Buffalo," presented by Zionsville's Off-Main Street Players community theater troupe and directed by Marcus Waye. This production contains mild language and sexual situations. Tickets are $15. To purchase tickets, visit www.offmainstreetplayers.org. For more information call (317) 595-3700.
