"Once Upon A Pirate ...and other acts of sillyness"

It’s an original musical comedy adventure based upon painstaking research of true pirate life …. but not really. The story is one that is often told (but never quite like this) of a lass and lad and a pirate ship and ten thousand pounds of gold . . . lest we forget to mention, our pirate chest is filled to the brim with songs and laughs galore. AAARRRGGG.

“Déjà Vu - All Over Again”

It’s a fun-filled evening of song and hilariously original, full of nonsense, songs and comedy routines including some truly inept magic by the infamous ‘Great Stupino & Trudy’. Plus, an old time sing-a-long filled with unrehearsed surprises.

"Yuletide Madness"

Ring in the holidays with an evening of yuletide madness, mayhem and merriment the likes you’ve never seen before. Gloriously filled with song, dance, and outrageous comedy, “Yuletide Madness” will tickle your fancy and jingle your bells.

ABOUT THE SHOWS

An evening at Sweet Fanny Adams Theatre is an experience you will never forget. The unique style of shows presented in this 1890s style theatre are a combination of Old English music hall, American vaudeville, Monty Python, and Broadway musical comedy. The original shows are quick-witted sensations filled with the broadest of humor and the silliest of slapstick all guaranteed to be unlike anything you´ve seen before. Since opening in Gatlinburg in 1977, Sweet Fanny Adams Theatre has been recognized as one of the most innovative and unusual professional theatres in the country and was named an historical treasure by the city of Gatlinburg.

The creative force behind the theatrical magic at Sweet Fanny Adams is the wonderfully off-beat talents of Pat and Don MacPherson. They have written, produced, and directed over 32 original musical comedies. Their shows have played in over forty professional theatres throughout the country including New York, Los Angeles, Atlantic City and an over two year run of their musical Tom Jones at the Desert Inn in Las Vegas.

CAST MEMBERS

Don was born when he was very young and has not aged a day since. When lucid, his creative mind spills its contents for all to enjoy and ponder. In his spare time, Don enjoys directing, acting in strange musical comedies and running the family business. His day job is top secret but, rumor has it, he is fashion coordinator for the military’s summer line of camouflage.

Janice Snider

Discovered in a Saloon, Janice first appeared on our stage in 1979 in her favorite show “Tom Jones”. And, if calculations are correct, that would have made her 5 years old, which is far too young to be hanging around a Saloon, let alone Sweet Fanny Adams Theatre. Since then, Janice has sung and danced her way through just about every show here and at home.

Tim Coleman

Tim first sauntered upon our stage in 1987 and has shown up every year since and vows to continue to do so until he completes his escape tunnel under the stage. He is 6’-1” (without high heels) and his age is negotiable. Tim has played a staggeringly wide variety of roles, breads, and confections but, never, ever a sesame seed bun (he has limits).

Chris MacPherson

Chris began his acting career at the tender age of six right here on our stage. He toured the country with Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus as Crunchy the Clown. Fortunately for all of us, he ran away from the Circus and came home. In his spare time, Chris enjoys working on his tan and debating world events with his imaginary friend, Bubba.

Rachel Snider

It is rumored, our Rachel was first spotted backstage under one of the dressing tables. Her mother, Janice, was pregnant during Act 1 and by Act 2 . . . well it’s only a rumor from unreliable sources. All grown, Rachel now brightens our stage and our hearts. In her spare time, she cares for her pet zebra named Spot and is determined to alphabetize her bag of M&Ms.
