Mr. Moribund’s Theatre of Terror returns to the Riverwalk Theatre in July
Today, the popular live show Mr. Moribund’s Theatre of Terror made the official announcement that it will be returning to the Riverfront Theatre for a Summer Screamer show this July, with a showing of the classic 1968 Godzilla film Destroy All Monsters.
The show took a necessary hiatus during the 2020 pandemic when the Riverfront Theatre closed for the year, but now that capacity restrictions have been eased the show will once again be presented to audiences on Friday July 30th and Saturday July 31st of 2021.
“We are all eager to get back to the show again,” said show creator and performer W.J. Walton, “and I know our audience is eager to see us as well.” The show features a screening of the film, along with live performances by the Theatre of Terror cast, live music and comedy, contests and audience participation.
Milford s Second Street Players is continuing to bring live theater to the region with its next production of An Evening of Culture: Faith County II by Mark Landon Smith. The show s prequel, Faith County, was produced by SSP in 2015.
The comedy has us revisiting a small town in Arkansas where members of the Mineola Council for Cultural Recognition are presenting a performance of Romeo and Juliet. They attempt to bring to life one of the Bard s classic plays on their cheaply built and constantly collapsing stage. Hilarity ensues as it soon becomes evident none are too sure of their lines, some are too old for their roles, the set is falling apart, and a dog will not shut up!
Milford’s Second Street Players will present the comedy “Exit Laughing” by Paul Elliott with four live performances and two streaming performances. Live performance dates are Friday and Saturday, Feb. 26 and 27; and Saturday and Sunday, March 6 and.

Milford’s Second Street Players (SSP) will present the comedy, Exit Laughing by Paul Elliott with four live performances and two streaming performances.
Exit Laughing focuses on three southern ladies from Birmingham whose biggest highlight in life for the past 30 years has been their weekly bridge night out with the “girls.” But, when one of their foursome inconveniently dies, they do the most daring thing they’ve ever done: “borrow” the ashes from the funeral home for one last card game, and embark on the wildest, most exciting night of their lives, which just happens to involve a police raid, a stripper and a whole new way of looking at all the fun you can have when you’re truly living.
