PARIS — Celebration Barn presents, “The Fabulous Problemas” at 8 p.m.,  Aug. 24. In this quirky comedy, three squirt gun-slinging desperadoes will stop at nothing in pursuit of ill-gotten gain. These grifters swindle, seduce, and even sing and dance their way into the greatest heist of all time. 

The Orlando Sentinel’s Matt Palm describes them “as fabulous as their name.” Calling the show “exuberant,” the Indianapolis NUVO awarded “The Fabulous Problemas” a 4½ star rating.

Starring Amanda Huotari, Daniel Orrantia and Aaron Tucker, “The Fabulous Problemas” was devised in Bogota, Colombia, and premiered at Celebration Barn in 2011 under the direction of Davis Robinson. Since then, the show has toured to New York, Florida, and Indiana. 

The cast met at Celebration Barn Theater while studying under various master artists. Aaron Tucker has toured extensively with Ringling Brothers, Barnum & Bailey Circus and in Japan with the Kinoshita Circus. Colombian-born Daniel Orrantia performs in Europe and throughout South America as part of the LaGata improvisational theater company. Amanda Huotari has brought her solo show, “The Soirée”, to festivals across the country. She is also Executive Director of Celebration Barn Theater. 

 Doors open at 7:30. Tickets are $14 for adults, $12 for seniors, and $8 for students and children. Purchase tickets in advance by calling the Celebration Barn Theater’s box office at 207- 743-8452.  Celebration Barn Theater is located just off Route 117, at 190 Stock Farm Road, South Paris.
