Buckle up, theatre fans! In this jam-packed episode of Acting Up with GTC, hosts Micky Shearon and Matt Beutner take you behind the curtain of the Granbury Opera House, giving you an exclusive, unfiltered look at all the exciting happenings in our theatre world!
🎤 First up, we sit down with the incredible Ashlyn Gomez, who takes center stage as Miss Mona in The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. She shares her inspiring journey back to theatre after a decade away, her experience starring alongside Academy Award-winner Zoe Saldana in Lioness: Special Ops, and how she brings heart, humor, and a little Texas twang to her role.
🎸 Then, we rock out with Mark Trippensee and Adam Ray from The Long Run, one of the nation’s best Eagles tribute bands! They’re gearing up for their March 28-29 shows at the Granbury Opera House, featuring an unforgettable mix of Eagles classics and “Other Stuff” – think Kansas, Huey Lewis, Doobie Brothers, and more!
Plus, we cover:
🎭 Upcoming productions, including Bonnie & Clyde 🔫
🎟️ Granbury Theatre Academy registrations for Seussical Kids & Finding Nemo Jr. 🐠
🎭 The high-stakes drama of Julius Caesar ⚔️
This episode is filled with laughter, wisdom, and a few unexpected emotional moments (we’re looking at you, Ashlyn!). Whether you’re a die-hard theatre fan or just love a good behind-the-scenes story, you won’t want to miss this!
