Buchholz High School Drama Players Presents Radio TBS

For their second show of the 2024-2025 season, Buchholz Players proudly presents Radio TBS. In this hilarious comedy radio hostesses and society doyennes Vesta Poteet and Dixie Mandrell bring to you the comings and goings of the activities in and around The Luna Del Mar Manufactured Home Oasis and Monkey Emporium — where very few of the monkeys are contagious.

There’s a visit to Graceland from rovin’ reporter Missy Goode (and her unfortunate arrest by the security guards); there’s the upcomin’ Miss Manatee contest, if forced contestant Mayola Felts can stop eaten’ every sweet thing she can get her hands on; there’s The Heart of Dixie advice for the lovelorn and addicted — a subscription to the Gone with the Wind collectors series of plates with Scarlette O’Hara looking like Ernest Borgnine in drag is a dramatic disappointment. The colossal celebration at Luna Del Mar, penicillin capital of central Florida, is Jesus and Elvis; A Tribute to the Kings, a little nativity with some rock n’ roll.

So it’s not the holidays, but in honor of Elvis, a drive-by nativity is planned with headlights to be beamed on the annual tableau — low headlights, PLEASE! If you think that this kings’ tribute runs smoothly, you’ll also believe that teased hair is a thing of the past.
Student director Anna Tomlinson said “This hilarious comedy is brought to life by an incredible cast who showcase the everyday lives of a group of people, while reminding us of the importance of finding community.
