It’s the final weekend for the Blue Ridge Community Theater’s run of Radio TBS.

A play in two acts, this show provides a comic relief to your week that may remind you of more than one person in your own community. The show opens in Central Florida in a trailer park known as Luna Del Mar with the local radio broadcast. You meet the hosts and sit through a little bit of the show before exploring a little more of the park to meet some, shall we say, “interesting” characters.

I will admit the second half to be a little faster paced than the first, but this doesn’t say much as the humor carries you through both acts.

Don’t expect a lot of depth in the story or characters, though, as the show is meant solely to make you laugh through a little slapstick and a lot of farce. And in its purpose and mission? I must say it’s one thing to hear a crowd laugh, and another entirely to hear them cackle like they did on Thursday.

Pay close attention to Christian E. Mims-Wolfe’s portrayal of Vesta Poteet who made me laugh more with her facial expressions than spoken jokes. A talent that helped her to steal parts of the show even if she wasn’t speaking.

Also, Carol Smith’s portrayal of Mary Eunice Wheaton, a character that provides most of the depth of the show, brought life to the “holier-than-thou” super-strict church goer that we all currently have in the back of our minds because we know someone like that. A flavor that was brought to its peak by her plays on the exaggerated, somewhat boisterous, boom in her voice that this type of person can get.

If you need a good laugh, make sure you make it down to the Blue Ridge Community Theater this weekend to see the final run of Radio TBS before the current falls on July 26.
