REGIONAL PREMIERE
Wednesday nights at 7:30 pm
After a successful workshop run of "Just Frank," it is time for the regional premiere! New characters, new scenes, and original music by award winning singer/songwriter, Judy Rodman. Now, it's better than ever!
What happens when a man finally gets everything he’s ever wanted—and still feels like something’s missing?
Meet Frank Lash, a lifelong dreamer and struggling stage actor whose biggest role (until now) was playing Gus the Theatre Cat in Cats on Broadway. For over thirty years, Frank has lived paycheck to paycheck, waiting for the inheritance his late father left behind—an inheritance kept just out of reach by his colorful, multi-married stepmother, Mrs. White-Clark-Lash-VonSchmidt.
When Mrs. VonSchmidt finally passes away, Frank’s dreams come true in a single shocking moment: he’s suddenly rich beyond imagination. But instead of finding happiness, he finds himself lost. How can a man have everything—and still feel like he has nothing?
When a hilarious twist of fate sends Frank spiraling into a wild, dreamlike adventure, he’s forced to confront what truly matters in life, love, and legacy.
Written by award-winning playwright Darren J. Butler, Just Frank is a funny, touching, and heartwarming new stage comedy about finding purpose when life doesn’t go according to plan. Packed with wit, warmth, and theatrical flair, Just Frank is a delightful evening of live theatre that will leave audiences laughing, reflecting, and cheering for Frank all the way home.
