LaComedia and Budd's Revenge

The musical sketch comedy "Bubba's Revenge" is the current production at the LaComedia Dinner Theatre in Springboro. It's a followup to "The Honky Tonk Angels," a previous production at LaComedia, that focused on three female county singers.
"Bubba's Revenge," a two-act show, adds three male performers who add a dash or two of humor to the proceedings. Granted, the script is somewhat corny, but the show's really about the singing and the half dozen cast members perform, for the greater part, very enthusiastically.
The cast includes Jackie Snyder, Leslie Jo Bissett and Tina Shatto as the gal singers. The guys are played by Harold Skaggs, Dustin Harris and Chris Beiser, who delivers an outrageous performance as a goofball with adrenalin to spare.
Included among the dozen or so country songs are "Rhinestone Cowboy," "On the Road Again," "Islands in the Stream" and "The Devil Went Down to Georgia." The second act centers on gospel songs like "His Eye is On the Sparrow."
The LaComedia show offers a light, humorous look at another side of folks in the country music business.
"Bubba's Revenge" continues through Feb. 28. For ticket information, call 1-800-677-9505.
