Event Details

TWO MARRIED PEOPLE, 1 RV, AND 50 STATES.
HANG ON FOR THE ROAD TRIP OF A LIFETIME!

Name: Ned & Nancy See America - The Musical
Start: 2025-04-24T19:00:00-0400
End: 2025-04-24
Location: Blue Gate Theatre

FRESNO, CALIFORNIA: To celebrate his retirement and 40th wedding anniversary, Ned Richards surprises his wife Nancy with a cross-country road trip in his shiny brand-spankin' new RV!

As good as his intentions are, this "vacation of a lifetime" quickly turns into one hilarious disaster after another. An encounter with a biker gang, a hot air balloon ride gone wrong, an Amish stowaway, a mugging in DC (a real one, not taxes) - and many other twists and turns down the road. Ned and Nancy end up seeing way more of America than any postcards could ever begin to describe.

Through it all new memories are made, old ones relived, and vacation frustrations melt away in the beauty that is America. Add to that a poignant moment at a military memorial, stunning Americana Travelog scenery, and some cruising "Golden Oldies" on the radio, and a surprise ending - this is a show that'll have the audience singing along, and laughing their bobby socks off!
