addison watertower theatre: Foote Festival - Addison's Contribution
- 04/05/11 02:09 PM
Horton Foote, a Texas playwright, is being honored across North Texas and Addison's WaterTower Theatre is involved. This year would have marked Foote's 95th birthday. In celebration, Metroplex organizations have organized a 2-month Foote Festival that includes movie screenings, stage performances and lectures. Foote is best recognized for his Academy Award-winning screenplays, To Kill a Mockingbird and Tender Mercies, but he was a prolific and Pulitizer Prize-winning playwright, too.
The Traveling Lady, the earliest work in the Foote Festival, opened Monday at the WaterTower Theatre. Although dated and old-fashioned, it still charmed and moved us in the audience during the preview … (4 comments)

Takin' It All Off in Addison, Texas:
The Full Monty is the final production of the season at Addison's WaterTower Theatre, now on stage through August 15, 2010. It's a MUST SEE!
When massive layoffs hit the local mill, six unemployed, out of work, out of cash, and out of shape steelworkers hatch an all-or-nothing scheme to make some quick cash. This musical is endowed with big laughs, big heart and a jaw-dropping finale that just might charm your pants off!
The Full Monty is based on the book by Terrence McNally, music and lyrics by David Yazbek.
