Thingamajig Theatre Company actors competed in the third annual Bob Howard Memorial Pickleball Tournament on August 5 in honor of Howard, an avid theatre patron who died in October 2022, two weeks after his 80th birthday. He was a lifelong pilot and active member of the Pagosa aviation community, as well as a member of the Gray Wolf Ski Club and the Pagosa Springs Golf Club.
The pickleball players are among the brilliant summer actors performing in three Broadway musicals at the Pagosa Springs Center for the Arts in rotation until the end of August — “Something Rotten!”, “The Wild Party” and “A Gentleman’s Guide to Murder.” Tickets are available at the theatre’s website at pagosacenter.org or by phoning or texting the box office at 970-731-SHOW (7469).
Thingamajig Theatre Company is an award-winning professional live theatre in residence within the Pagosa Springs Center for the Arts. Its talented cast and crew come from across the U.S. to produce musicals, comedies and dramas year-round. The theatre was co-founded in 2010 by Tim and Laura Moore, both award-winning actors and directors.
