FAYETTE, Ohio — A fundraiser for the Fayette Opera House, Down Home at the Opera House and You’re Full of Baloney, will take place on Saturday, April 26.
The event kicks off at 5 p.m. with dinner. Opera house board member Ken Thatcher is making his famous homemade bologna, and a meal of fried bologna sandwiches, chips, drinks and pie will be served for a freewill donation.
At 7 p.m., the evening’s entertainment will begin, in the form of a country, gospel and bluegrass show by Mike McRobbie and Kirk Beck of Archbold, both frequent performers at the opera house’s Bean Creek Coffee House series. The special guest performer will be Steve Snider, board member for the Fayette Community Fine Arts Council and emcee for Fayette Opera House events.
Tickets to the show are $15, with discounted rates of $12 for seniors (ages 60 and up) and $10 for students.
Tickets may be purchased at the door or by calling 419-237-3111.
The historic Fayette Opera House was built in 1889. After falling into disuse in the mid-20th century, a restoration effort led by the Fayette Community Fine Arts Council resulted in it once again becoming a home for live entertainment. More information is available at operahouse-fayette.org.
