NOTE FROM THE DIRECTOR: 

 

The people in the town of Fayro, Texas may seem very familiar to you - I'm sure the same kind of people live right here in East Tennessee. We've taken care as we've prepared this piece to have fun with some of the stereotypical mannerisms of these residents without making fun of them. We've tried very hard to find the genuine, real spirit of each character and let it shine through. We've found that, while family reunions can be challenging, you can't really go to a wedding without holding a little hope in your heart. Everyone wants to believe that we can find true love and share that love with someone for a lifetime, that we never really lose touch with those we've lost, and that there's always a place we can come back to called "home".

 

Thank you for joining us for this wedding. We hope you have a great time and leave with a smile on your face!
