FAYETTE, Ohio — The Fayette Opera House will close out its season on Saturday, May 17, with Tommie Richardson and Back in Time Bluegrass.

The concert is at 7 p.m. at the opera house, 105 E. Main St., Fayette.

Tommie Richardson and his son, Bailey, along with friends Mike Nicol and Merv Spencer (from Bridge County Bluegrass Band) combine their talents for this bluegrass, country and gospel show.

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 online at operahouse-fayette.org.
