MEET THE CAST DUANE LARSON RICHARD Duane is very concerned by the goings-on in Fuddy Meers, but he’s trying to be a good man. Luckily, he’s surrounded by talented actors who are just Jim Dandy with his complicated past. Duane last appeared in TCR’s The Diary of Anne Frank, and has worked with several theatre groups in the corridor. He is a playwright who has had several plays produced in TCR’s Underground New Play Festival. “Thanks to the cast and our directors!” MAX LOCHER KENNY Max is somewhat of a legend. Not really…he is actually quite weird. You shouldn’t touch him with a 49 and a half foot pole. Anyways, he is happy to be in the show. He told us to say thanks to someone. Forgot who though. Oh well. “Enjoy.” REGINALD PUPPE HINKY BINKY Reggie is proud to be making his TCR debut in this storied and sought-after puppet role. This role is the puppets’ Stanley Kowalski. Reggie earned his undergraduate degree from the Josef Kettenglied Derortwoleuteihrehändeschubsen Puppetechnikum in Mainz, Germany. He’s happy to be back in the old US of A. “Thanks to Steve for being gentle!” 26 TRACI REZABEK HEIDI Traci totally digs working in the Grandon with these ridiculously fun people. She was last seen in Next Fall on the auditorium stage here at TCR, and in Fun Home at The Giving Tree Theater in Marion. “Please enjoy this little tale of love and family.” DAWN STEPHENS GERTIE Dawn is married to Greg Young. They have two awesome children, Madeline (age 26) and Lucy (age 25). Dawn enjoys historic preservation, playing the tuba, going to the dog park with her four pups, and volunteering. Dawn also enjoys initiating random conversations wherever she goes. In her spare time, Dawn works at three (sometimes four!) part-time jobs. “Thanks to Greg for being so loving and supportive ALL the time! Seriously!” JAKE STIGERS LIMPING MAN Fresh from dancing his way through Follies, Jake is limping his way through this show. His favorite TCR roles over the last 30 years include Smudge in Forever Plaid, Bobby in A Chorus Line, Reuben in Joseph/ Dreamcoat, King Triton in Disney’s The Little Mermaid, and most recently the stripper pianist Mr. Braithwaite in Billy Elliot the Musical. Jake is a writer by day, and he keeps his limp authentic via miles of long-distance running. FUDDY MEERS | theatrecr.org
