Comedy Opens Feb. 5th At HCT’s Fireman’s Kitchen

Hickory - The Hickory Community Theatre production of The Nerd features a ‘family’ of friends who experience funny and bizarre difficulties when an unexpected guest (the nerd of the title) parks himself on the couch. Lacking in even the most basic social skills, Rick Steadman (played by Daniel Breuer) often practices the tambourine at night, till he feels sleepy. This is the second production in the HCT Firemen’s Kitchen this season, and it opens on Friday, February 5.

Performances are at 8pm Fridays and Saturdays, February 5-27 and 7:30pm on Thursday, February 11 in the Firemen’s Kitchen at HCT. All seats are $12 and are now on sale.

HCT is a Funded Affiliate of the United Arts Council of Catawba County. “The Nerd” is produced by Robert Abbey, Inc. and Two on the Aisle.
