Fayette County Community Theatre Welcomes New Operations Manager

The Fayette County Community Theatre (FCCT) has been entertaining the people of Fayette County for more than four years. What started out as the dream of Susannah Mikulin in the fall of 2016 has become a reality, and a registered non-profit organization in 2017, and has blossomed into a thriving family of actors and artists and a theatrical powerhouse.

FCCT has produced 13 high quality events and awarded five scholarships totaling $5,000. They have also participated in many community events such as Schmekenfest, the Fayette County Fair Parade, and Art Stroll.

This year, they are continuing with their full length plays, bringing the mystery of “Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Jersey Lily” May 14-16, a student production of “The Jungle Book” Aug. 13-15, and Nov. 12-14 the classic drama “Of Mice and Men.”

The MS/HS Theatre Workshop is on the calendar for June 21-25 and they have begun forming a traveling troupe to reach all corners of the county.

New Operations Manager Heather Barthelme keeps all of the FCCT plates spinning. She has been with the organization since the first interest meeting and has been on stage, backstage, and stage managing since then. This year she stepped into the newly formed position to take some of the workload off of the volunteer board members and to ensure overall operations run smoothly.
